# Srimad Bhagavatam Canto 4 Chapter 8 Text 35

**[Śrīmad Bhāgavatam Canto 4 Chapter 8 Text 35](http://www.vedabase.com/en/sb/4/8/35/)**

 

*
dhruva uvāca
so ’yaṁ śamo bhagavatā
sukha-duḥkha-hatātmanām
darśitaḥ kṛpayā puṁsāṁ
durdarśo ’smad-vidhais tu yaḥ
* 

TRANSLATION
Dhruva Mahārāja said: My dear Lord Nāradajī, for a person whose heart is disturbed by the material conditions of happiness and distress, whatever you have so kindly explained for attainment of peace of mind is certainly a very good instruction. But as far as I am concerned, I am covered by ignorance, and this kind of philosophy does not touch my heart.
