शुभभावानुसंधानातप्रसन्ने मनसि स्थिते ।
शनैः शनैः प्रशान्ते च मिथ्याज्ञानघनाम्बुदे ॥ ९ ॥

śubhabhāvānusaṃdhānātaprasanne manasi sthite |
śanaiḥ śanaiḥ praśānte ca mithyājñānaghanāmbude || 9 ||

When the mind gains its serenity by culture of good qualities, the mist of its errors and ignorance gradually fade and fly away, like clouds before the rising sun.
