ASHTAVAKRA GITA : THE SONG OF ASHTAVAKRA 

 

18.31 A stupid man is bewildered when he hears the real truth, while even a clever man is humbled by it just like the fool.

18.32 The ignorant make a great effort to practise one-pointedness and the stopping of thought, while the wise see nothing to be done and remain in themselves like those asleep.

18.33 The stupid does not attain cessation whether he acts or abandons action, while the wise man find peace within simply by knowing the truth.

18.34 People cannot come to know themselves by practices -pure awareness, clear, complete, beyond multiplicity and faultless though they are.

18.35 The stupid does not achieve liberation even through regular practice, but the fortunate remains free and actionless simply by discrimination.
