"Semoga anda memiliki kebijaksanaan untuk memohon kepada Tuhan:

Agar diberi kemampuan melihat yang benar, keberanian memilih yang benar dan keinginan mengikuti yang benar.

Agar membangun iman bukan keraguan.

Agar dengan penuh harapan menyelesaikan yang bisa dilaksanakan dan tidak digentarkan oleh yang tidak bisa dilaksanakan.

Agar melihat pelbagai kemungkinan baru dan tidak dilumpuhkan oleh kesulitan yang menghalangi.

Agar menemukan tujuan hidup yang bermakna, bukan yang membosankan dan sia-sia.

Agar mengukur nilai-nilai dengan pengabdian pada kepentingan sesama, bukan keuntungan diri sendiri."

"Hadapilah hari ini!
Inilah saatnya untuk menuntut hidup yang nyata,
Dalam rentang waktu yang pendek ini, kita mendapat kesempatan untuk:

Berkembang dengan gembira, bertindak dengan mulia.
Menciptakan keindahan yang mempesona,
Karena hari kemarin cuma mimpi dan hari esok cuma bayang-bayang.
Tapi bila hari ini kita jalani dengan baik, setiap hari kemarin akan menjadi mimpi yang indah.
Dan setiap hari esok menjadi bayang-bayang harapan.
Jadi manfaatkanlah hari ini sebaik-baiknya."
— Kālidāsa
