1.82

kvacit pṛthvīśayyaḥ kvacid api ca paraṅka-śayanaḥ
kvacic chākāhāraḥ kvacid api ca śālyodana-ruciḥ |
kvacit kanthādhārī kvacid api ca divyāmbaradharo
manasvī kāryārthī na gaṇayati duḥkhaṃ na ca sukham ||

Now sleeping on the bare earth, now resting on a couch, / now feeding on wild greens, now relishing cooked rice, / now wearing a ragged cloak, now clad in celestial raiment— / the resolute person intent on their purpose counts neither pain nor pleasure.
