The eternal among the transient, the conscious among the conscious, the one who grants the desires of the many—the wise who perceive him as seated within themselves, to them belongs eternal peace, and to no others.
नित्योऽनित्यानां चेतनश्चेतनानाम् एको बहूनां यो विदधाति कामान् । तमात्मस्थं येऽनुपश्यन्ति धीराः तेषां शान्तिः शाश्वती नेतरेषाम् ॥ १३॥
One whose mind is untroubled in sorrows, who is free from longing amid pleasures, and from whom passion, fear, and anger have departed, is called a sage of steady wisdom.
दुःखेष्वनुद्विग्नमनाः सुखेषु विगतस्पृहः | वीतरागभयक्रोधः स्थितधीर्मुनिरुच्यते ||२-५६||
The mind does not become tranquil until it is connected to the ever-peaceful Supreme Being.
Seek the treasure of a peaceful mind and store it in the treasure of ease. All the wealth of your lands and seas is not worth a loyal heart and a tranquil mind.
