देशाद्देशान्तरप्राप्तौ विद्धि मध्यमसंविदः ।
जगदित्यपरं नाम स्वरूपादच्युतात्मनः ॥ २३ ॥

deśāddeśāntaraprāptau viddhi madhyamasaṃvidaḥ |
jagadityaparaṃ nāma svarūpādacyutātmanaḥ || 23 ||

The Divine spirit never changes from its state of calm repose, and vacant mindedness, as that of a traveller in the interval of his journey from one place to another. Such is the state of this world which is ever calm and quiet.
