Shloka 8
Kāma–Mamatā–Upadeśa
Discourse on Desire, Possessiveness, and Ritual Duty
Devanagari script
बाह्यान्तराणां शत्रूणां स्वभाव॑ पश्य भारत | यज्ञ पश्यति तद् भूतं मुच्यते स महाभयात्,भारत! बाहरी और भीतरी शत्रुओंके स्वभावको देखिये-समझिये (ये मायामय होनेके कारण मभिथ्या हैं, ऐसा निश्चय कीजिये)। जो मायिक पदार्थोको ममत्वकी दृष्टिसे नहीं देखता, वह महान् भयसे छुटकारा पा जाता है
Transliteration
bāhyāntarāṇāṃ śatrūṇāṃ svabhāvaṃ paśya bhārata | yajñaḥ paśyati tad bhūtaṃ mucyate sa mahābhayāt ||
Translation
Vāyu said: “O Bhārata, observe and understand the true nature of enemies both outside and within. One who sees created things as they really are—without the possessive ‘mine’-making gaze—becomes freed from great fear.”
