Toe Gietaavaalaa gnyaana soenaaja Krishna

Luister, Krishna, gij die ons de Gietaa en de wijsheid gaf.
(Gietaa: Bhagavad Gietaa, Het Lied van de Heer.)

He who has knowledge of Self is a real wealthy man
A multimillionaire or a king is a poor man.
He who has devotion is a real wealthy man
A doctor or a advocate is a poor man
An engeneer or a banker is a poor man

Toe Gietaavaalaa gnyaana soenaaja Krishna

He who has control of mind is Lord of all Lords
He who is desireless is king of all kings
He who is full of this is better than all bhajanies
He who is “I” less is the emperor of emperors
He who is fashionless is raajaah of all raajaahs.
He who is fearless is shah of all shahs
He who has knowledge is maula of maulas (Arabische titel)
He who has knowledge is a most happy man
He who has devotion is bahadoer of all bahadoers. (bahadoer: Persisch woord; een krijger)
He who has devotion is a most happy man
