    आपूर्यमाणमचलप्रतिष्ठं समुद्रमापः प्रविशन्ति यद्वत् । तद्वत्कामा यं प्रविशन्ति सर्वे स शान्तिमाप्नोति न कामकामी ॥

    āpūryamāṇam acalapratiṣṭhaṃ samudram āpaḥ praviśanti yadvat । tadvat kāmā yaṃ praviśanti sarve sa śāntim āpnoti na kāmakāmī ॥

    Just as waters flow into the ocean, which stays full and steady though never overflowing, so the one whom all desires enter finds peace, not the one who chases desires.
