तस्माद्राघव संत्यज्य तीर्थदानतपःक्रियाः ।
श्रेयसे परमायान्तश्चित्तमेव वशं कुरु ॥ १३ ॥

tasmādrāghava saṃtyajya tīrthadānatapaḥkriyāḥ |
śreyase paramāyāntaścittameva vaśaṃ kuru || 13 ||

Forsake therefore, O Rama! your acts of holy pilgrimage, and observance of austerity and charity (which are of no avail to the peace of the soul); but keep the mind under your control, for attainment of your supreme felicity.
