Psychology for Everyone

Shankara, Bhaja Govindam 1

Worship Govinda, worship Govinda, O foolish mind.

भज गोविन्दं भज गोविन्दं गोविन्दं भज मूढमते ।

bhaja govindam bhaja govindam govindam bhaja mudha-mate |

Worship Govinda, worship Govinda, O foolish mind.

Shankara's refrain is a call to drop frantic acquisition. Use it as a rumination interrupt, not as an insult to someone already crushed.
