सुमहद्धैर्यमालम्ब्य मनसा व्यवसायिना ।
विचारयात्मनात्मानमात्मनश्चिरसिद्धये ।
वितताध्यवसायस्य जगद्भवतिगोष्पदम् ॥ ५५ ॥

sumahaddhairyamālambya manasā vyavasāyinā |
vicārayātmanātmānamātmanaścirasiddhaye |
vitatādhyavasāyasya jagadbhavatigoṣpadam || 55 ||

He who relies on his patience, and employs his mind, and cogitates upon the supreme soul in his own soul, for the attainment of his consummation;finds the deep abyss of the world, as a small chink in his vast comprehension.
