- notes
- synopsis
- Reader of the sutras: Sw Ananda Teertha.
- The sutra
- He is the charioteer.
- He has tamed his horses,
- Pride and the senses.
- Even the gods admire him.
- Yielding like the earth,
- Joyous and clear like the lake,
- Still as the stone at the door,
- He is free from life and death.
- His thoughts are still.
- His words are still.
- His work is stillness.
- He sees his freedom and is freed.
- The master surrenders his beliefs.
- He sees beyond the end and the beginning.
- He cuts all ties.
- He gives up all his desires.
- He resists all temptation.
- And he rises.
- And wherever he lives,
- In the city or the country,
- In the valley or in the hills,
- There is great joy.
- Even in the empty forest
- He finds joy
- Because he wants nothing.
