चिन्त्यमाने हि न व्येति भूयश्चापि विवर्धते ॥ ४६१

Bheshajyametaddukhasya yadetannanuchintayet
Chintyamane hi nav yeti bhuyashchapi vivardhate

The medicine to cure sorrow is to not think about it.
If one keeps thinking about it, it only gets aggravated.

मातुलो यस्य गोविन्दः पिता यस्य धनञ्जयः  

अभिमन्युर्वधं प्राप्तः कालस्य कुटिला गतिः ॥ ४६२

Matulo yasya Govindah pita yasya Dhananjayah
Abhimanurvadham praptah kalasya kutila gatih

With Krishna related on his mother’s side, Arjuna as his father,
Abhimanyu was killed, strange is the way of destiny.

विदुषां शासने तिष्ठन् नावमन्येत कञ्चन ।

सर्वस्यैवोपशृणुयात् सुभाषितजिघृक्षया ॥ ४६३

Vidusham shasane tishtthan navamanyeta kanchana
Sarvasyaivopashrunuyat subhashitajighrukshaya

Following the direction of scholars, one should not look down anyone.
With a mind to hear good words, listen to everyone.


प्रसन्नात्मात्मानि स्थित्वा सुखमव्ययमनुश्नुते ॥ ४६४

Chittasya hi prasadena hanti karma shubhashubham
Prasannatmatmani sthitva sukhamavyayamanushnute

With composure of mind one can destroy action good or bad.
With composed mind and immersed in one’s soul, one can attain eternal happiness.

यः स्तब्धो गुरुणा साकमन्यस्य नमनं कृतः ।

न छायायै न लाभाय मानी कन्थेरवन्नृणाम् ॥ ४६५

Yah stabdho guruna sakamanyasya namanam krutah
Na chayayai na labhaya mani kantheravannrunam

How can one who is arrogant towards his teacher be humble towards others? An arrogant person will be considered by people to be like a Kanthera tree neither giving shade or any other benefit.
