1.

Always study words of wisdom, with all of your capacity act in accordance

and perform the discipline of these words, and following the systems of

worship they enumerate, make the worship of the Supreme Lord, and don't

allow your consciousness to contemplate adverse desires. Wipe all the

dross

of sin from your mind, search for the faults in the pleasures of the

world,

search your own soul for true knowledge, and very quickly try to

renounce the

attachments to your home.

 

2. Maintain the association of true people, take refuge with devotion

in the

Supreme Divinity, and with all your capacity try to befriend the

universe, and

very quickly renounce the fruits of your labors. Whenever possible

seek out

the company of the true and knowledgeable people, and serve the

sandals of

their lotus feet, and ask from them even one letter of the knowledge of

Brahman and listen to the great words of wisdom from the Vedas.

 

3.

Always contemplate the great words of wisdom, take refuge in the great

words of wisdom, and stay far away from the bondages of the soul, and

search for the the real inner meanings of the texts of wisdom. I am

one with

God, Jalways maintain this attitude. Make renunciation of the many

thoughts

of the mind, and leave the egotism of your body, and don't debate idle

philosophies with intellectuals.

 

4.

Take the cure for the illness of uncontrolled desire, serve your

doctor as a

beggar would serve a Lord, don't seek the associations of

pleasure-seekers

or self-centered individuals. Remain contented with whatever you

receive in a

divine union, that which God has consented to give. Remain the same while

undergoing all the pairs of opposites like hot and cold, pleasure and

pain,

and don't give expression to worthless speech. Carry yourself as a great

renunciate. Don't look to get grace from other men, and don't seek to

obtain

something from men.

 

5. Sit down in a quiet, conducive and comfortable environment, and

contemplate the Supreme Divinity. Look into yourself with the fullness of

consciousness, and see the bondage of the gross world to the soul, and

reduce your necessity for action in the world. Don't allow your

thoughts to be

bound by karma, with the strength of wisdom free you mind from bondage.

Experience the fruits of your prarabda karma, the actions performed in

the

past, the fruits of which are being experienced in the present, and

after the

past karma is complete, with an attitude of one mind, go to the realms of

Union with the Highest Divinity and remain there.

 

6.

Whatever human being will read these five verses, and with a still

consciousness every day contemplate the essence of these verses, for him

the great flames of bondage to objects and relationships and

disruption to the

soul's peace, will be quickly eradicated.

Thus ends the five verses in praise of spiritual discipline written by

Shankar

Acharya in 700 a.d.
