आविवेकोपहारेण यथाप्राप्तार्थपूजनैः ॥ २८ ॥

aśilībhūtamevāntaḥ svabhāvaṃ samamāsyatām |
āvivekopahāreṇa yathāprāptārthapūjanaiḥ || 28 ||

You must not however allow your mind, become as insensible as a stone; but remain in your natural state and employ it in the service of your adorable object, with the best offerings of your reason on all things about you.
