तस्मान्मानं परित्यज्य क्रोधं च दुरवग्रहम् । स्वस्था भव विमर्शेन तत्त्वबुद्ध्या स्थिरा भव
tasmānmānaṃ parityajya krodhaṃ ca duravagraham | svasthā bhava vimarśena tattvabuddhyā sthirā bhava
C’est pourquoi, renonce à l’orgueil et à la colère, si difficiles à maîtriser. Par une réflexion lucide, demeure stable au-dedans; par l’intelligence du réel, sois fermement établi.
Lomaharṣaṇa (Sūta) (deduced, Māheśvara-khaṇḍa narrative frame)
Tirtha: Kedāra
Type: kshetra
Scene: A teacher-like figure admonishes a devotee in the Himalayan Kedāra setting: abandon pride and anger; the devotee sits composed, eyes lowered, in reflective steadiness.
Spiritual progress requires mastery over pride and anger, cultivated through discernment and truth-oriented understanding.
Kedāra (Kedarnath) is the larger tīrtha context in Kedāra Khaṇḍa, where inner discipline heightens the fruit of pilgrimage.
The verse prescribes an inner discipline—abandoning māna and krodha—rather than an external rite.
