विवेकचूडामणि - विचारेण

अर्थस्य निश्चयो दृष्टो विचारेण हितोक्तितः ।
न स्नानेन न दानेन प्राणायामशतेन वा ॥

- विवेकचूडामणि

It only when one deliberates on wise sayings that his belief consolidates into a conviction. Not by reciting the same thing over and over again after taking bath, or by resorting to charity or doing rhythmic breathing hundred times. Practice is much better than recital.

- Viveka Chudamani
