अन्तर्मुखमना नित्यं सुप्तो बुद्धो व्रजन्नपि ।
पुरं जनपदं ग्राममरण्यमिव पश्यति ॥ ३१ ॥

antarmukhamanā nityaṃ supto buddho vrajannapi |
puraṃ janapadaṃ grāmamaraṇyamiva paśyati || 31 ||

The mind which is fixed to its inward vision, and is inattentive to external objects; thinks the populous city as a wilderness before it, both when it is awake or asleep, and active or inactive.
