The mendicant Rishi said O immortals, it has been heard by me that tranquility, self-control and the observance of true religion practiced until all the knots of one's heart be loosened bring for the agreeable and disagreeable to the level of one's own self.
हंस उवाच एतत् कार्यममराः संश्रुतं मे धृतिः शमः सत्यधर्मानुवृत्तिः। ग्रन्धि विनीय हृदयस्य सर्वं प्रियाप्रिये चात्मसमं नयीत॥
