No power can stand before them,
And there is no speed to flee.
Don’t waste your day,
A little or a lot. Every night that passes
Shortens your life by that much.
Walking or standing,
Sitting or lying down:
Your final night draws near.
You have no time to be heedless.
the Arahant Monk Sirimanda, Theragatha 6.13

Crested peacocks with beautiful blue necks cry out in Karamvi. Aroused by a cool breeze, they awaken the sleeper to meditate.

Night, with its garland of stars,
Is not just for sleeping.
Those who are conscious will know
That night is also for waking.
