तत्तत्स्वरूपमुत्सृज्य बुद्ध्वा चिन्मात्रखं जगत् ।
अश्मना चेतनेनैव स्थेयं नास्थेतरोत्तमा ॥ ५७ ॥

tattatsvarūpamutsṛjya buddhvā cinmātrakhaṃ jagat |
aśmanā cetanenaiva stheyaṃ nāsthetarottamā || 57 ||

Therefore they are the best of men, who shun the sight of visible forms; and view the world in the light of intellectual vacuity; and remain as firm as rocks in the meditation of the steady Intellect, and place no faith or reliance on anything else.
