Even when doing nothing the ignorant one is agitated by restlessness, while a yogi remains undisturbed even when doing what there is to do.॥58॥

अकुर्वन्नपि संक्षोभाद्

व्यग्रः सर्वत्र मूढधीः।

कुर्वन्नपि तु कृत्यानि

कुशलो हि निराकुलः॥१८- ५८॥

अज्ञानी पुरुष कुछ न करते हुए भी क्षोभवश सदा व्यग्र ही रहता है। योगी पुरुष बहुत से कार्य करता हुआ भी शांत रहता है॥५८॥

Even when doing nothing the ignorant one is agitated by restlessness, while a yogi remains undisturbed even when doing what there is to do.॥58॥
