[hd2]त्वय्येव त्वत्कृतं त्वं क्षपयसि जगदित्यूर्णनाभात् प्रतीयां
त्वच्चिन्ता त्वत्स्वरूपं कुरुत इति दृढं शिक्षये पेशकारात् ।
विड्भस्मात्मा च देहो भवति गुरुवरो यो विवेकं विरक्तिं
धत्ते सञ्चिन्त्यमानो मम तु बहुरुजापीडितोऽयं विशेषात् ॥८॥[/h2]

From the spider, which, after spinning its web out of threads emanating from its body,later draws the thread into itself, may I realize that that the Universe created by Thee, is absorbed into Thee, by Thee alone. From the beetle, I learn that constant meditation upon Thee confers Thy form. Above all, this human body which is full of dirt from birth to death and which turns to ashes after death it is a great teacher. If we examine properly that body makes us understand the wisdom, Of the difference between soul and non soul and also teaches renunciation, And to me, my body affected by many diseases teaches wisdom and detachment.
