एतेषां दुःखबीजानां प्रोक्तं यद्यन्मयोत्तरम् ।
तस्य तस्य प्रयोगेण शीघ्रमासाद्यते पदम् ॥ २ ॥

śrīvasiṣṭha uvāca |
eteṣāṃ duḥkhabījānāṃ proktaṃ yadyanmayottaram |
tasya tasya prayogeṇa śīghramāsādyate padam || 2 ||

Vasishtha replied:—It is by the gradual demolition of the seeds and sources of woe, which I have mentioned one after the other, that one is enabled to attain his consummation in a short time.
