Parityagashcha nissanga bhavanti hi mahatmanam ll

 

Love till the last breath, anger lasting only for a second, giving

without expecting anything in return are qualities in great men.

Anantam nityamekam yat tadbrahmetyavadharayet ll

Realise that Brahman is Bliss which is Non–Dual, Infinite, Eternal,

which fills all – above, below and all that exists in-between.

 

मृत्युकाले यथा मर्त्यो विपरीतानि सेवते ।

मुमूर्षूणां हि सर्वेषां यत्यथ्यं तन्न शोभते ॥ 868

Just as at the time of death one chooses what is dangerous to one,

none who desires the end counts on that which will save him.

 

मृगा मृगैः संगमनुब्रजन्ति गावश्च गोभिस्तुरगस्तुरङ्गैः ।

Deers roam in the company of deers, cows with other cows, and horses with other horses. Foolish persons remain in the company of foolish persons and educated persons in the company of educated persons.

एतावज्जन्मसाफल्यं देहिनामिह देहिषु ।
प्राणैरर्थैर्धिया वाचा श्रेय एवाचरेत्सदा ॥ 870 

Etavat janma saphalyam dehinam iha deheshu ।
Pranaih arthaih dhiya vacha shreya evacharet sada ॥

There is only one way to be satisfied in life. Make use of

your life, wealth, wisdom and words to help others succeed.
