LAGHU YOGA VASISTHA
death welcome to those only whose minds, being
pampered by the bondage-giving desires, do ever
travel in that path and get agitated under the load
of Samsara? The lives of those only are blissful,
who, having mastered egoism and desires, do cast
their eyes equally upon all, which vision confers
infinite bliss. The lives of those only are blissful
who, devoid of love and hatred and having
rendered their minds cool, are witness to all
actions, though performing them. He who is
attracted towards objects as well as the objects
themselves are both bondage-giving; the severance
(of the mind) from objects constitutes quiescence. It
is only when this quiescence is mastered that
Moksha is attained. Now inasmuch as you have
reached that state, you should seat yourself on
your victorious throne (of the quiescent mind) and
reign over your kingdom. You shall presently be
invested with the regal diadem in the midst of the
reverberating sound of conches and of the
auspicious acts and praises of the Devas. May you
reign till the end of this Kalpa.‟
