समाक्षरैश्चतुर्भिर्यः पादैर्गीतो महर्षिणा।

What it means
Grief that is expressed and shared slowly changes form. Speaking, writing or singing about your pain can turn it from something that crushes you into something that connects you to others.हिंदी में अर्थ
महर्षि द्वारा समान अक्षरों वाले चार चरणों में गाया गया और बार-बार दोहराया गया उनका शोक ही श्लोक बन गया।
जो दुख व्यक्त और बाँटा जाता है, वह धीरे-धीरे रूप बदल लेता है। अपने दर्द को कहना, लिखना या गाना उसे बोझ से जोड़ने वाली चीज़ बना सकता है।
