Standing there the devata said:
Those living in the forest,Peaceful and calm, of pure life,
Eating but one meal a day:
How is it they appear so radiant?
The Lord replied:
They sorrow not for what is past,They have no longing for the future,
The present is sufficient for them:
Hence it is they appear so radiant.
By having longing for the future,
By sorrowing over what is past,
By this fools are withered up
As a cut down tender reed.
