🎯Today’s wisdom👉

🌹
I have no relation with the body,
like the sky with clouds.
So, where is the duty of this body for me?
Awake, asleep, or dreaming.
★Vivekachudamani:
Meaning👉
Just as there is no connection between the sky and clouds, similarly, I have no connection with this body. Therefore, how can the duties of this body—waking, dreaming, and sleeping—affect me? In essence, the soul always resides in the awakened state of consciousness.
