इतीव तद्गृहमभिगम्य शोभनम्सविस्मयो नगमिव चारुशोभनम्।पुनश्च तत्परमसुगन्धि सुन्दरम्हिमात्यये नगमिव चारुकन्दरम्।।5.7.15।।

Transliteration

itīva tad-gṛham abhigamya śobhanaṃ sa-vismayo nagam iva cāru-śobhanam | punaś ca tat paramasugandhi sundaraṃ himātyaye nagam iva cāru-kandaram ||

Translation

ഇങ്ങനെ ആ ശോഭനഗൃഹത്തെ സമീപിച്ച്, പർവ്വതംപോലെ മനോഹരമായി ദീപ്തമായതു കണ്ടു മഹാകപിക്ക് വിസ്മയം തോന്നി; പിന്നെയും അവൻ ആ പരമസുഗന്ധമുള്ള, അതിസുന്ദരമായ ഭവനം നോക്കി—ഹിമാത്യയകാലത്ത് പർവ്വതം മനോഹര ഗുഹകളാൽ സമൃദ്ധമാകുന്നതുപോലെ.

Mindful awareness—balancing awe with purposeful action.
