Be immutable!

This Sanskrit Shlok talks about how great people are always of one mind. They are not fickle-minded. Happiness or distress are both treated in the same way by them. They neither get excited when there is gain, nor are they depressed when there is loss. Such a way of living gives one peace of mind, hence it is recommended to adopt this attitude.
