Viveka-śatakam
Translation
For one who is hearing the nectarean topics about You,
where are the threefold miseries? Where is the cycle
of birth and death? Where is distress, madness, sensual
enjoyment, anger or lust? Where is greed, ignorance,
envy or fear of death? Which intelligent person would
not honour the vibrant narrations about Your qualities
from the mouth of saintly devotees?
