બેઠક Bethak

નામ ભજે મન બસ કરે, યહી બાત હે તંત;

nāma bhajē mana basa karē, yahī bāta hē taṁta;

Literally
Chant the name and control the mind, this alone is the essence;
What it means
The ultimate goal of spirituality is simply to remember God and master one's mind, making extensive study of scriptures unnecessary.
