ASHTAVAKRA GITA : THE SONG OF ASHTAVAKRA 

 

18.56 It is the sense of responsibility which is samsara. The wise who are of the form of emptiness, formless, unchanging and spotless see no such thing.

18.57 Even when doing nothing the fool is agitated by restlessness, while a skilful man remains undisturbed even when doing what there is to do.

18.58 Happy he stands, happy he sits, happy sleeps and happy he comes and goes. Happy he speaks, and happy he eats. Such is the life of a man at peace.

18.59 He who of his very nature feels no unhappiness in his daily life like worldly people, remains undisturbed like a great lake, all sorrow gone.

18.60 Even abstention from action leads to action in a fool, while even the action of the wise man brings the fruits of inaction.
