citaścetyonmukhatvena duḥkhāyāyamahaṃsthitaḥ |
cetyopaśamanaṃ brūhi mune tadupaśāntaye || 45 ||

It is from the proclivity of the mind towards the thinkables, that I am suffering all these pains and pangs within myself; now tell me O muni, about the means of suppressing my thoughts, in regard to external objects.
