Reflect

What if I let a want simply pass through me, like a river into the sea?

आपूर्यमाणमचलप्रतिष्ठं

समुद्रमापः प्रविशन्ति यद्वत्

तद्वत्कामा यं प्रविशन्ति सर्वे

स शान्तिमाप्नोति न कामकामी

॥ २.७० ॥

As the waters of different rivers enter the ocean, which though full on all sides remains undisturbed, likewise he is whom all enjoyments merge themselves attains peace; not he who hankers after such enjoyments.

Translation

Finishing today lights your diya
