(586) One should give up desire for pleasures in this world as also in the next; should give up liking either for life or for death or for enjoyments, should engage thought in the evil consequences available in the world of transmigration.
PATII OF LIBERATION
(587) One gets birth in a miserable state by being devoted to other substances i. e. worldly things and birth in a good state by being devoted to contemplation of one's own soul; knowing this one should be absorbed in meditation of one's soul and desist from thinking of other substances.
