Neither power, nor riches, nor friends, nor well-wishers, can cure a man of his grief so successfully as the control of self. Therefore not injuring others and cherishing friendship for all creatures, be of pious behaviour, O Bharata!
न विक्रमो न चाप्यर्थो न मित्रं न सुहृज्जनः। तथोन्मोचयते दुःखाद् यथाऽऽत्मा स्थिरसंयमः॥ तस्मान्मैत्रं समास्थाय शीलमापद्य भारत।
