Verse #35

 

Enjoyments of embodied beings are fleeting like the quick play of

lightning within a mass of clouds. Life is as insecure as a drop of

water attached to the edge of a lotus-leaf and dispersed by the wind.

The desires of youth are unsteady. Realizing these quickly, let the

wise firmly fix their minds in Yoga, easily attainable by patience and

equanimity.

 

The call for patience and equanimity is easier asked for than done, I

might say. Oh, how to calm the mercurial mind!
