एतां दृष्टिमवष्टभ्य राघवात्मावलोकने ।
विहराशु विचारात्मा पदं प्राप्स्यसि शाश्वतम् ॥ २२ ॥

etāṃ dṛṣṭimavaṣṭabhya rāghavātmāvalokane |
viharāśu vicārātmā padaṃ prāpsyasi śāśvatam || 22 ||

Do you, O Rama! put out the visible sights from your view, and look at the inmost soul within yourself; being thus accustomed to spiritual meditation, you will soon have the sight of your God.
