sarvakarmāṇi manasā saṃnyasyāste sukhaṃ vaśī . navadvāre pure dehī naiva kurvanna kārayan
ഇന്ദ്രിയങ്ങളെ അടക്കിയ ദേഹി, മനസ്സുകൊണ്ട് എല്ലാ കർമ്മങ്ങളെയും സന്യസിച്ച്, ഒൻപത് വാതിലുകളുള്ള ഈ നഗരത്തിൽ (ശരീരത്തിൽ) താൻ ഒന്നും ചെയ്യാതെയും ചെയ്യിക്കാതെയും സുഖമായി വസിക്കുന്നു.
The embodied man of self-control, having given up all actions mentally, continues happily in the town of nine gates, without doing or causing (others) to do anything at all.
ആത്മജ്ഞാനിയായ ദേഹി, താൻ ശരീരത്തിൽ നിന്ന് വേറിട്ടവനാണെന്ന് തിരിച്ചറിഞ്ഞ്, എല്ലാ കർമ്മങ്ങളെയും മനസ്സുകൊണ്ട് ഉപേക്ഷിച്ച്, ഒൻപത് ദ്വാരങ്ങളുള്ള ഈ ശരീരമാകുന്ന നഗരത്തിൽ ശാന്തനും നിർഭയനുമായി സന്തോഷത്തോടെ വസിക്കുന്നു.
All actions -- (1) Nitya Karmas These are obligatory duties. Their performance does not produce any merit but their nonperformance produces demerit. Sandhyavandana? etc.? belong to this category.(2) Naimittika Karmas These Karmas are performed on the occurrence of some special events such as the birth of a son? eclipse? etc.(3) Kamya Karmas These are optional. They are intended for the attainment of some special ends (for getting rain? son? etc.)(4) Nishiddha Karmas These are forbidden actions such as theft? drinking liour? etc.(5) Prayaschitta Karmas Actions performed to neutralise the effects of evil actions or sins.The man who has controlled the senses renounces all actions by discrimination? by seeing inaction in action and rests happily in this body of nine openings (the ninegated city)? because he is free from cares? worries? anxieties and fear and his mind is ite calm and he enjoys the supreme peace of the Eternal. In this ninegated city the Self is the king. The senses? the mind? the subconscious mind? and the intellect are the inhabitants or subjects.The ignorant wordly man says? I am resting in the easychair. The man of wisdom who has realised that the Self is distinct from the body which is a product of the five elements? says? I am resting in this body. (Cf.XVIII.17?50)
