तृष्णा न जीर्णा वयमेव जीर्णा, कालो न यातो वयमेव याताः। भोगा न भुक्ताः वयमेव भुक्ताः, तपो न तप्तं वयमेव तप्ताः।।

तृष्णा जीर्ण नहीं हुई हम ही जीर्ण हो गए, काल बीता नहीं हम ही बीत गए, भोग नहीं भोगे हम ही भुक्त हो गए, तप नहीं तपा हम ही सन्तप्त हुये।

Craving did not wear out—we wore out; time did not pass—we passed; we did not consume enjoyments—enjoyments consumed us; austerity was not burned—we were burned.
