न किंचन द्वेष्टि तथा न किंचिदभिकाङ्क्षति ।
भुङ्क्ते च प्रकृतं सर्वं महाभोक्ता स उच्यते ॥ २१ ॥

na kiṃcana dveṣṭi tathā na kiṃcidabhikāṅkṣati |
bhuṅkte ca prakṛtaṃ sarvaṃ mahābhoktā sa ucyate || 21 ||

Again he is said to enjoy himself and his life the best, who neither envies anybody nor pines for any thing; but enjoys and acquiesces to whatever is allotted to his lot, with cool composure and submission of his mind.
