186. Who can stand?

```

Against man’s impurity,

Who can stand?

No, not even a saint.

Against man’s insincerity,

Who can stand?

No, not even a sage.

Against man’s obscurity,

Who can stand?

No, not even a seer.

Against man’s insecurity,

Who can stand?

No, not even a yogi.

Against man’s stupidity,

Who can stand?

No, not even an Avatar.

Against man’s futility,

Who can stand?

No, not even God.
