इदं कर्म त्यजामीदमाश्रयामीति निर्णयः ।
मूढस्य मनसो रूपं ज्ञानिनस्तु समा स्थितिः ॥ ५ ॥

idaṃ karma tyajāmīdamāśrayāmīti nirṇayaḥ |
mūḍhasya manaso rūpaṃ jñāninastu samā sthitiḥ || 5 ||

That I will do this and not that, or accept of this one and refuse the other, are the conceits of foolishness; but they are all alike to the wise.
