मनोऽन्तश्चलति व्यर्थं मननैषणमुह्यया ।

mano'ntaścalati vyarthaṃ mananaiṣaṇamuhyayā |
bahirgirisaridvyomasamudrapuralīlayā || 28 ||

The mind is restless of its own nature, with all its vain thoughts and desires within itself; but the man is carried abroad as by its current; over hills and deserts and across rivers and seas, to far and remote cities and countries.
