THE MAHABHARATA
 
"That man is happy who has universal

equanimity, who does not worry himself,

who speaks the truth, who has disgust (for

mundane things) and no desire to do this
 

and that.
 

 
'प्रापणात्सर्वकामानां परित्यागो विशिष्यते ।

नान्तं सर्वविधित्सानां गतपूर्वोऽस्ति कश्चन ।
faadza fafecara: aza faida aigs

निवर्तस्व विधित्साभ्यः शाम्य निर्विद्य कामुक

Giving up all desires is better than

realising them. Nobody has, till now,

finished with all his desires to do things.

Turn away from desires to do things and

you, creature of desire! with disgust (for

things), quiet yourself.

प्रज्ञा प्रतिष्ठा भूतानां प्रज्ञा लाभः परो मतः।
प्रज्ञा निःश्रेयसी लोके प्रशाज्ञा स्वर्गो मतस्सताम् ॥
 

Knowledge is the support of beings;

knowledge is considered the greatest

acquisition; knowledge is the greatest

happiness in the world; knowledge is

considered by the good as heaven.
