प्राज्ञं विज्ञातविज्ञेयं सम्यग्दर्शनमाधयः ।
न दहन्ति वनं वर्षासिक्तमग्निशिखा इव ॥ ४१ ॥

prājñaṃ vijñātavijñeyaṃ samyagdarśanamādhayaḥ |
na dahanti vanaṃ varṣāsiktamagniśikhā iva || 41 ||

But the troubles of this world can not afflict the wise man, who knows the knowable, and discerns all things (in their true light); just as it is impossible for the flame of fire to burn down a wood drenched by the rains.
