Manu 4.258
एकाकी चिन्तयेन्) नित्यं विविक्ते हितम् आत्मनः । [म्हितम् आत्मनि ] एकाकी चिन्तयानो) हि परं श्रेयो ऽअधिगच्छति) ॥
ekākī cintayen) nityaṃ vivikte hitam ātmanaḥ | [M.hitam ātmani ] ekākī cintayāno) hi paraṃ śreyo 'adhigacchati) ||
Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.
Alone let him constantly meditate in solitude on that which is salutary for his soul; for he who meditates in solitude attains supreme bliss.
