क्षणं वर्षसहस्रं वा तत्र लब्ध्वा स्थितिं मनः ।
रतिमेति न भोगौघे दृष्टस्वर्ग इवावनौ ॥ ६९ ॥

kṣaṇaṃ varṣasahasraṃ vā tatra labdhvā sthitiṃ manaḥ |
ratimeti na bhogaughe dṛṣṭasvarga ivāvanau || 69 ||

When the mind is situated in its state of neutrality, and whether it is for a moment or a thousand years;it has no more any relish for pleasure, by seeing its future joys of the next world, as already begun in this.
