धीर्ह्रीः श्रीर्भीः स्मृतिः कीर्तिः कान्तिरित्यादिकंगणं ।
न पश्यति विसंकल्पस्तमसीव पदान्यहेः ॥ १२ ॥

dhīrhrīḥ śrīrbhīḥ smṛtiḥ kīrtiḥ kāntirityādikaṃgaṇaṃ |
na paśyati visaṃkalpastamasīva padānyaheḥ || 12 ||

The sapient mind is regardless of all external intelligence, fortune, fame, or prosperity; and having no desire or hope to rise or fear or shame to fall, he sees none of these things before him, as one sees no object of broad daylight in the gloom of night.
