3.81

ā saṃsārāt tribhuvanam idaṃ cinvatāṃ tāt tādṛṅnaivāsmākaṃ
nayana-padavīṃ śrotra-mārgaṃ gato vā |
yo 'yaṃ dhatte viṣaya-kariṇo gāḍha-gūḍhābhimānakṣīvasyāntaḥ-
karaṇa-kariṇaḥ saṃyamālāna-līlām ||

Though searching this threefold world throughout worldly existence, my friends, no such person
has ever entered our field of vision or the range of our ears,
who can play the role of a tethering post for restraint to the inner elephant of the mind,
which is drunk with deep and hidden vanity, a wild elephant among sense objects.
