- Tib. རྒོད་པ་ནི་སྡུག་པའི་མཚན་མའི་རྗེས་སུ་ཞུགས་པའི་འདོད་ཆགས་ཀྱི་ཆར་གཏོགས་པ་སེམས་ཡུལ་ལ་འཕྲོ་བས་ལས་སུ་མི་རུང་ཞིང་མ་ཞི་བར་བྱེད་པ་ཞི་གནས་ཀྱི་བར་དུ་གཅོད་པའོ།
- Excitement is a mind which pursues pleasant objects and belongs to the category of desire. As the mind moves to an object, it becomes unserviceable and restless. It is a hindrance to calm abiding. (Rigpa Translations)
