ವಿಹಾಯ ಕಾಮಾನ್ ಯಃ ಸರ್ವಾನ್ ಪುಮಾಂಶ್ಚರತಿ ನಿಸ್ಪೃಹಃ ।
ನಿರ್ಮಮೋ ನಿರಹಂಕಾರಃ ಸ ಶಾಂತಿಮಧಿಗಚ್ಛತಿ ॥೭೧॥
vihāya kāmān yaḥ sarvān pumāṃścarati nispṛhaḥ |
nirmamo nirahaṃkāraḥ sa śāṃtimadhigacchati ||71||
Gist of the sloka:
One who does not surrender to material objects, does not fall for desires, does not have ego and lives, such a person will achieve mukthi.
Explanation:
One who throws away the material comforts and temptations he achieves happiness. He is the real seeker. One who practices, limited food, sleep and sensual comforts; living fearlessly with the sole belief in the Lord’s knowledge and protection, not falling to the temptations, without getting disturbed with the situations - he is the real ‘human being’. He will never have possessiveness like its my or mine. He will reach mukthi.
