Namuchi

Do you indulge in grief or pass your days cheerfully? Namuchi answered, 'By indulging in such sorrow that cannot be avoided, one only wastes one's body and gladdens one's foes.

Indulging in sorrow destroys one's personal beauty, prosperity, life, and virtue itself.

A wise person, standing firm like a mountain, never gives in to anger, never becomes attached to sensory objects, and never succumbs to sorrow or rejoices in happiness.

There is only one controller, and no one else. His control extends over the being that lies within the womb.

That person is never perplexed, who accepts any condition they are placed in as part of their destiny.
