Ramcharitmanas 5.46 meaning
tab lagi kusal na jeev kahun sapanehun man bishram
jab lagi bhajat na ram kahun sok dham taji kam
तब लगि कुसल न जीव कहुँ सपनेहुँ मन बिश्राम।
जब लगि भजत न राम कहुँ सोक धाम तजि काम।।
A soul finds no well-being, and no rest of mind even in dreams, until it gives up desire, the home of sorrow, and turns to worship Rama.
What it means
Endless wanting keeps the mind restless, even in sleep. Real calm comes when we stop chasing every craving and anchor ourselves in something higher. Peace is not found in more, but in turning inward.How it helps in real life
- Phone & habits: Your Amazon wishlist keeps growing and you're still restless. Delete it tonight, and spend ten quiet minutes before bed without a screen.
- When you feel alone: Alone at night, your mind lists everything you still lack: a partner, a house, a promotion. Stop, and name one thing you're grateful for now.
हिंदी में अर्थ
जब तक जीव शोक के घर काम (वासना) को छोड़कर राम का भजन नहीं करता, तब तक उसे कुशल नहीं, और सपने में भी मन को विश्राम नहीं मिलता।
कभी न खत्म होने वाली चाहतें नींद में भी मन को बेचैन रखती हैं। सच्ची शांति तब मिलती है जब हम हर इच्छा के पीछे भागना छोड़कर किसी ऊँचे आधार से जुड़ते हैं।
