Man is distinguished from the brute animals in proportion as thought prevails over sense: but in the healthy processes of the mind, a balance is constantly maintained between the impressions from outward objects and the inward operations of the intellect:--for if there be an overbalance in the contemplative faculty, man thereby becomes the creature of mere meditation, and loses his natural power of action.

There is an occasion for the prisoner to be released, but householders entertain no desire to be relieved from the ties of family.

Those who are able to overcome it are saintly Arhats.
