Verse 5.91.62

स्फुरत्तनु तनुक्षुब्धं सुखमुत्प्लवनं प्रति ।
अन्तःस्थितमहालोकमपश्यत्प्रविलीयते ॥ ६२ ॥

sphurattanu tanukṣubdhaṃ sukhamutplavanaṃ prati |
antaḥsthitamahālokamapaśyatpravilīyate || 62 ||

The small bark of our body, gliding slowly along in quest of pleasure, falls into the eddy of despair; and so every body falls into utter gloom, without looking to the bright light that shines within himself.
