ईप्सितावेदनाख्यात्तु मनःप्रशमनादृते ।
गुरूपदेशशास्त्रार्थमन्त्राद्या युक्तयस्तृणम् ॥ १४ ॥

īpsitāvedanākhyāttu manaḥpraśamanādṛte |
gurūpadeśaśāstrārthamantrādyā yuktayastṛṇam || 14 ||

The precepts of a preceptor, the instructions of the sastras, the efficacy of mantras, and the force of arguments, are all as trifles as straws, without that calmness of the mind, which can be gained by renunciation of our desires and by the knowledge of truth.
