Bhartṛhari K268

Tawney

            
            Their hand their only dish,
            
            Begging their wants supplies,
            
            They sleep where Fate may wish,
            
            The world as straw they prize,
            
            Such is the hermit's life:
            
            Few souls, by Siva's might,
            
            Can win through toil and strife
            
            To that supreme delight.

Mādhavānanda

            
              पाणिं पात्रयतां निसर्गशुचिना भैक्षेण संतुष्यतां
            
                यत्र क्वापि निषीदतां बहुतृणं विश्वं मुहु: पश्यताम् ।
            
              अत्यागेऽपि तनोरखण्डपरमानन्दावबोधस्पृशा-
            
                मध्वा कोऽपि शिवप्रसादसुलभ: संपत्स्यते योगिनाम् ।।९०।।
            
            90. Those who have only their hand to eat from, who are contented with begged food, pure by itself, who repose themselves anywhere (i.e., require no house or bed), who constantly regard the universe like almost a blade of grass, who even before giving up the body experience the uninterrupted Supreme Bliss—for such yogīs indeed the path which is easy of access by Śiva’s grace becomes attainable. (The path, that is to say, of mokṣa or supreme liberation.)
