gataśoko na kartavyo, bhaviṣyaṃ nai 'va cintayet;
vartamāneṣu kāryeṣu vartayanti vicakṣaṇāḥ. || 2 ||

2. One should not grieve for the past, nor be distrest about the future; the wise occupy themselves with the things of the present. What is to be, that will be, without any exertion; and what is (destined) to pass away, even thus will it pass away. And it is said:
