nr-deham adhyam su-labham su-durlabham
plavam su-kalpam guru karanadaram
maya nukulena nabhasvateritam
pumam bhavabdvim na teret sa atma-ha
The human form of life is compared to a boat (plavam means boat). The captain of this boat is the guru, and favorable winds impelling this boat are the instructions of sastra. And what is the purpose, the kalpa, of this boat? To cross the ocean of material existence. But if one does not cross over, pumam bhavabdvim na teret sa atma-ha, he is certainly to be considered the killer of his own soul.
Anyway.......
It's one of my favorite verses. What to do..
