śaucāt svāṅgajugupsā parair asaṃsargaḥ || 2.40 ||

Practice purity,

lose your fascination with your body

and the physical form of others. You will perceive beauty with different eyes.

• Alberto Villoldo

śaucāt—by cleanliness. sva-aṅga—to one’s own body, jugupsā—disinclination, paraiḥ—with others. asaṃsargaḥ—cessation of contact.

The Sankhya-pravachana commentary of Vyasa

[English translation of the 7th century commentary by Vyāsa called the Sāṅkhya–pravacana, Vyāsabhāṣya or Yogabhāṣya]

[Sanskrit text for commentary available]

One begins to clean himself, being disgusted with the dirt of his body. Then he sees the defects of the body. He loses his attachment to the body, and becomes restrainedin himself. Furthermore, he ceases to come into contact with others. He sees the nature of the body. He wishes to give up his own body, seeing that it is never pure, even though it is being constantly washed by water, &c. How should he come into contact with the body of others which are all the more impure?—91.

The Gloss of Vachaspati Mishra

[English translation of the 9th century Tattvavaiśāradī by Vācaspatimiśra]

This shows the external cleanliness to be the indicator of attainments.—40.

Saṃsarga (संसर्ग) refers to “connections” (with children, etc.), according to the commentary on the 11th century Jñānārṇava (verse 2.1), a treatise on Jain Yoga in roughly 2200 Sanskrit verses composed by Śubhacandra.—Accordingly, “Is one not disturbed by [family] attachments (com.—putrādisaṃsargaiḥ—‘connections with children, etc.’)? Is this body not cut down by diseases? Does death not open its mouth? Do calamities not do harm every day? Are hells not dreadful? Are not sensual pleasures deceiving like a dream? Because of which, having discarded one’s own benefit, you have a desire for the world which is like a city of Kiṃnaras”.
