The Yoga of the Imperishable Brahman
Devanagari script
य॑ं लब्ध्वा चापरं लाभं॑ मन्यते नाधिकं तत: । यस्मिन् स्थितो न दुःखेन गुरुणापि विचाल्यते
Translation
Kapag natamo na ang pakinabang na iyon, wala nang ibang pakinabang na itinuturing na higit pa roon. Sa kalagayang iyon na pinananahanan, ang yogi ay hindi nayayanig kahit ng pinakamabigat na pagdurusa—sapagkat iyon ang pakinabang ng pag-abot sa Kataas-taasang Sarili (Paramātman).
