When the wise person drives away negligence through mindfulness, climbing the tower of wisdom, they look down—free from sorrow—upon the sorrowing crowds. Just as one standing on a mountain peak looks down upon those standing on the ground below.

Foolish and ignorant people indulge in negligence. However, the wise person guards mindfulness as their most precious treasure. Do not indulge in negligence; do not find pleasure in sensual delights. For the person who is mindful and meditative attains great happiness.
