In Chapter 3, the verses urge people to steady and guard their restless thoughts, linking mental discipline with happiness and freedom from Mara’s power. They contrast the fragile body with the protection of knowledge, then stress that a mind’s direction can cause greater harm than enemies or provide greater help than relatives.
Hvad sker der?
- A wise person steadies thoughts as an arrow maker straightens an arrow, while thoughts struggle like a stranded fish.
- Taming and guarding the restless mind brings happiness, and controlling it frees people from Mara’s bonds.
- Unsteady thoughts prevent complete knowledge, while an undistracted, watchful person has nothing to fear.
- The verses urge knowledge and constant vigilance against Mara, stressing the body’s fragility and approaching death.
- A wrongly directed mind harms more than enemies, while a well-directed mind helps more than relatives.
