अवेदनमसंकल्पस्तन्मयेनैव भूयताम् ।
एतावत्परमं श्रेयः स्वयमेवानुभूयताम् ॥ १३ ॥

etāvatparamaṃ śreyaḥ svayamevānubhūyatām || 13 ||

The best way to inappetence, is the ignoring and abnegation of the phenomenals which I want you to do; and know that your disavowal of all is of the greatest boon to you, as you will be best able to perceive in yourself.
