दैवेन नीयते देहो यथा कालोपभुक्तिषु ।

daivena nīyate deho yathā kālopabhuktiṣu |
lakṣyālakṣya-gatiṃ tyaktvā yas tiṣṭhet kevalātmanā ||
śiva eva svayaṃ sākṣād ayaṃ brahmaviduttamaḥ |
jīvanneva sadā muktaḥ kṛtārtho brahmavittamaḥ ||
কালত ভোগ কৰিবলগীয়া অভিজ্ঞতালৈ দেহ দেৱবশে নীত হয়। লক্ষ্য–অলক্ষ্য দুয়োফালে গতি ত্যাগ কৰি যি কেৱল আত্মাত স্থিত থাকে—সি সঁচাকৈ সাক্ষাৎ স্বয়ং শিৱ; সি উত্তম ব্ৰহ্মবিদ। জীৱিত থাকিলেও সদা মুক্ত, কৃতাৰ্থ—সি পৰম ব্ৰহ্মবিদ।
The body is led by destiny (daiva), as in experiences that are to be undergone in time. Having abandoned movement toward the ‘aimed-at’ and the ‘not-aimed-at’ (the seen and unseen goals), he who stands by the Self alone—he is indeed Śiva himself, directly; this is the highest knower of Brahman. Living (still), he is ever liberated, fulfilled; the supreme knower of Brahman.
