Abhanga 728The Moral Ideal

General

English Translation · I.P. 728

LET your food and clothing he enough for existence; your dwelling a hermitage in a hut or a cave. Let nothing fetter your mind; store up Narayana in your heart. Talk not over much, nor sit in public places; keep your mind wakeful and subdue your senses. Tuka says, We should improve our days, resolving the knot of the three qualities.

Tr. J. Nelson Fraser & K.B. Marathe (1909)
