ĀTMĀNUŚĀSANA – PRECEPT ON THE SOUL by Ācārya GUṆABHADRA (ca. 818–900 A.D.) [186]
Gātha 185
The dim-witted man laments, with loud cries, the inevitable death of others – the wife, the son, the friend, etc. – thinking them as his own. Same is the case at the approach of his own death. How can such dim-witted man attain renown and good after-life, the outcome of a fearless death? The wise man should not mourn the approach of death.
