केनाणुनान्तः क्रियते मेरुस्त्रिभुवनं तृणम् ॥ १३ ॥

svasthena jīvitenoccaiḥ kenātmaivāpahāritaḥ |
kenāṇunāntaḥ kriyate merustribhuvanaṃ tṛṇam || 13 ||

Who being in easy circumstances in life, has not lost his soul in it; and who being but an atom in creation, does not reckon the great mountain of Meru as a particle? i. e. the egotist.
