न सुखी न च वा दुःखी न विरक्तो न संगवान्। न मुमुक्षुर्न वा मुक्ता न किंचिन्न्न च किंचन॥१८- ९६॥
A man with tranquil mind is neither happy nor unhappy, neither detached nor attached. He is neither seeking liberation nor liberated. He is nothing of these, nothing of these.
विक्षेपेऽपि न विक्षिप्तः समाधौ न समाधिमान्। जाड्येऽपि न जडो धन्यः पाण्डित्येऽपि न पण्डितः॥१८- ९७॥
A man with tranquil mind does not get distracted by disturbances, in meditation he does not meditate. A blessed man neither gains stupidity by his worldly acts, nor does he gets wisdom.
मुक्तो यथास्थितिस्वस्थः कृतकर्तव्यनिर्वृतः। समः सर्वत्र वैतृष्ण्यान्न स्मरत्यकृतं कृतम्॥१८- ९८॥
A man with tranquil mind remains established in his self. Being without any duty, he is at peace. He is always the same. As he is without greed, he does not recall what he has done or not done.
