जीवन्मुक्तानंदलहरी - व्यामोह


कदाचित् प्रसादे क्वचिदपि च सौधेषु धनिनां
    कदाचित् शैलेषु क्वचिदपि च कूलेषु सरिताम् ।
कुटीरे दान्तानां मुनिजनवराणामपि वसन्
    मुनिर्न व्यामोहं भजति गुरुदीक्षाक्षततमाः ॥

kadAchit prasAde kvachidapi ca saudheShu dhaninAm
    kadAchit shaileShu kvachidapi ca kUleShu saritAm ।
kuTIre dAntAnAm munijana varAnAmapi vasan
    munirna vyAmoham bhajati gurudIkShAkShatatamAH ॥

They live sometimes in the palace of a king, in the houses of rich people, on mountain top, on river banks with cool water by their side, among the huts of other mendicants and saints. In spite of seeing so much the minds of the saints are unmoved by the comforts and luxury. This must be due to the learnings on detachment they got from their teachers.
