नास्ति बुद्धिरयुक्तस्य न चायुक्तस्य भावना | न चाभावयतः शान्तिरशान्तस्य कुतः सुखम्
nāsti buddhirayuktasya na cāyuktasya bhāvanā . na cābhāvayataḥ śāntiraśāntasya kutaḥ sukham
不專注者無智慧，不專注者亦無禪定。不禪定者無平靜，無平靜者何來幸福？
For the unsteady there is no wisdom, and there is no meditation for the unsteady man. And for an unmeditative man there is no peace. How can there be happiness for one without peace?
無法將心專注於禪定的人，便無法獲得真我的知識。不專注的人無法實踐禪定，甚至無法對真我知識產生強烈的奉獻，也無法對解脫（莫克沙）產生熱切的渴望。不實踐禪定的人無法擁有心靈的平靜。一個沒有心靈平靜的人，又怎能享受幸福呢？渴望（特里希那，即對感官對象的渴求）是平靜的敵人。一個渴求感官對象的人，絲毫無法獲得幸福。心靈將永遠不安，不斷渴望對象。唯有當這種渴求消逝時，人才能享受平靜。只有那時，他才能禪定並安住於真我之中。
The man who cannot fix his mind in meditation cannot have knowledge of the Self. The unsteady man cannot practise meditation. He cannot have even intense devotion to Selfknowledge nor can he have burning longing for liberation or Moksha. He who does not practise meditation cannot possess peace of mind. How can the man who has no peace of mind enjoy happinessDesire or Trishna (thirsting for senseobjects) is the enemy of peace. There cannot be an iota or tinge of happiness for a man who is thirsting for sensual objects. The mind will be ever restless? and will be hankering for the objects. Only when this thirsting dies? does man enjoy peace. Only then can he meditate and rest in the Self.
