Phandanaṃ capalaṃ cittaṃ, dūrakkhaṃ dunnivārayaṃ;
Ujuṃ karoti medhāvī, usukārova tejanaṃ.
The mind is so fickle and agitated. It is very difficult to protect and very challenging to guard from evil. The wise person straightens his mind as an arrow maker straightens an arrow shaft.

Love the way the Pali version is recited.
I am looking forward to more. Hope all 423 verses are covered.
How nice it would be if Monk with distinction elaborated on some of the verses like dadato punnam pavadati……., punnam na pammajhaya, sacam manorakheya….
