अनाश्रिता दानपुण्यं वेदपुण्यमनाश्रिताः । रागद्वेषविनिर्मुक्ता विचरन्तीह मोक्षिणः॥५-३६-५१॥
Those who seek liberation move through this world without dependence on the merit of gifts, and without dependence on the merit of Vedic rites; freed from attachment and aversion, they live unbound.
english translation
स्वधीतस्य सुयुद्धस्य सुकृतस्य च कर्मणः । तपसश्च सुतप्तस्य तस्यान्ते सुखमेधते॥५-३६-५२॥
For one who has studied well, who has fought well in one’s rightful duty, who has acted well, and whose discipline has been well-practised—happiness increases at the end, as its mature result.
english translation
स्वास्तीर्णानि शयनानि प्रपन्ना न वै भिन्ना जातु निद्रां लभन्ते । न स्त्रीषु राजन्रतिमाप्नुवन्ति न मागधैः स्तूयमाना न सूतैः॥५-३६-५३॥
Even upon well-spread beds, those divided within never gain sleep. O king, they find no satisfaction in pleasures, nor when praised by bards and panegyrists.
english translation
न वै भिन्ना जातु चरन्ति धर्मं न वै सुखं प्राप्नुवन्तीह भिन्नाः । न वै भिन्ना गौरवं मानयन्ति न वै भिन्नाः प्रशमं रोचयन्ति॥५-३६-५४॥
Those who are divided do not truly practice dharma, nor do the divided attain happiness here. The divided do not honor what is worthy of respect, and tranquility does not please them.
english translation
न वै तेषां स्वदते पथ्यमुक्तं योगक्षेमं कल्पते नोत तेषाम् । भिन्नानां वै मनुजेन्द्र परायणं न विद्यते किंचिदन्यद्विनाशात्॥५-३६-५५॥
Wholesome counsel does not please them, nor do security and welfare take shape for them. For the divided, O lord of men, there is no final refuge other than ruin.
