Meaning
Non-violence, evenness of mind, contentment, self-discipline, generosity, fame and disgrace: these many different states of living beings arise from me alone.
हिंदी में अर्थ
अहिंसा, समभाव, संतोष, तप, दान, यश और अपयश: प्राणियों के ये अलग-अलग भाव मुझसे ही उत्पन्न होते हैं।
Practise it today
When praise or criticism comes your way today, notice that both are passing states, and respond to each in the same steady, polite way.
Reflect tonight
Did you meet praise and criticism with the same steadiness today? Which one was harder?
