ROZ EK SHER

तत्त्वदृष्टि जो देखिये सत्यारथ कि भाँति
ज्यों जाकौ परिग्रह घटे त्यों ताको उपशान्ति
-बनारसीदास

tattvadrishti jo dekhiye satyaarath kii bhaanti
jyon jaakau parigraha ghate tyon taako upashaanti
-Banarasidasa

When one looks at the real facts, one realizes that
The lesser one's attachment to material possessions, the more peace
one finds
