Verse 4.27.41

समविषममिदं जगत्समग्रं समुपनतं स्थिरतां स्ववासनान्तः ।
चलचललहरीभरो यथाब्धावत इह सैव चिकित्स्यतां प्रयाता ॥ ४१ ॥

samaviṣamamidaṃ jagatsamagraṃ samupanataṃ sthiratāṃ svavāsanāntaḥ |
calacalalaharībharo yathābdhāvata iha saiva cikitsyatāṃ prayātā || 41 ||

The path of this world, is either even or rugged, according to the good or restless desires of our hearts. The heart is like the sea in its calm after storm, when its waves are still as our subsided desires, or as boisterous as the stormy sea with our increasing rapacity.
