50 passagesश्रीमद्वाल्मीकियरामायणे किष्किन्धाकाण्डे पञ्चविंशः सर्गः ॥४-२५॥ स सुग्रीवं च तारां च साङ्गदां सहलक्ष्मणः। समानशोकः काकुत्स्थः सान्त्वयन्निदमब्रवीत्॥ १॥
In the revered Valmiki Ramayana, in the Kishkindha Section, the twenty-fifth canto. Kakutstha, together with Lakshmana and sharing the same grief, consoling Sugriva, Tara, and Angada, said this:
न शोकपरितापेन श्रेयसा युज्यते मृतः। यदत्रानन्तरं कार्यं तत् समाधातुमर्हथ॥ २॥
A dead person is not joined to what is beneficial through the burning of grief. Whatever duty remains to be done hereafter, you ought to accomplish that.
लोकवृत्तमनुष्ठेयं कृतं वो बाष्पमोक्षणम्। न कालादुत्तरं किंचित् कर्मशक्यमुपासितुम्॥ ३॥
The worldly custom that ought to be observed has been carried out by you: the shedding of tears. Nothing whatsoever can be further accomplished by attending to action beyond the proper time.
नियतिः कारणं लोके नियतिः कर्मसाधनम्। नियतिः सर्वभूतानां नियोगेष्विह कारणम्॥ ४॥
Fate is the cause in the world; fate is the means by which action is accomplished. Fate is the cause of all beings in their appointed functions here.
न कर्ता कस्यचित् कश्चिन्नियोगे नापि चेश्वरः। स्वभावे वर्तते लोकस्तस्य कालः परायणम्॥ ५॥
No one is the doer in regard to anyone’s appointment, nor indeed is the Lord so. The world proceeds according to its own nature; for it, Time is the final resort.
