अन्तर्नैराश्यमादाय बहिराशोन्मुखेहितः ।
बहिस्तप्तोऽन्तराशीतो लोके विहर राघव ॥ २१ ॥

antarnairāśyamādāya bahirāśonmukhehitaḥ |
bahistapto'ntarāśīto loke vihara rāghava || 21 ||

Conduct yourself, Rama, with your inward indifference and want of all desire: but show your outward desire for whatever is good and great. Be cold blooded within yourself but full of ardour in your external demeanour.
