मनसा कर्मणा वाचा यदा क्षुभ्यति नो वपुः ।
शान्तात्मा तिष्ठति स्वस्थो जीवधातुस्तदा त्वसौ ॥ २० ॥

manasā karmaṇā vācā yadā kṣubhyati no vapuḥ |
śāntātmā tiṣṭhati svastho jīvadhātustadā tvasau || 20 ||

When the body is weary with action of its limbs, mind or speech, the living element then becomes still, and remains in its composure, with the calm and quiet soul residing within the body.
