बालमूकादिविज्ञानवदन्तस्त्यक्तवासनम् ।
भवतः कुर्वतः कार्यं खवच्चित्तं न लिप्यते ॥ २० ॥

bālamūkādivijñānavadantastyaktavāsanam |
bhavataḥ kurvataḥ kāryaṃ khavaccittaṃ na lipyate || 20 ||

As babes are possessed of their innate knowledge, and dumb creatures are endowed with their instinct, without the feeling of any desire rising in them; so they live and act with their minds unattached to anything, and as vacant as the empty air.
