इति तत्त्वविदां तात संकल्पाः संक्षयं गताः ॥ २३ ॥

idaṃ kṛtvā karomīdamidaṃ tyaktvedamityalam |
iti tattvavidāṃ tāta saṃkalpāḥ saṃkṣayaṃ gatāḥ || 23 ||

With his wakeful mind, he meets all the affairs of his concern with his spiritual unconcern; as the mirror receives the reflections of objects, without being tainted by them.
