14.7

And in that way their bodies are ungraspable.
They remain in the peace, perfect peace, of samādhi,
And in that way they are trained in the restraint of the body. {25}

“ ‘Thus established, they have no fear, they have no terror,
Their minds are undisturbed, and they feel no envy.
They who are thus trained in the restraint of the body
Have become liberated from all misfortune. {26}

“ ‘They are not afraid of poison or weapons;
They are not afraid in the middle of fire or water.
They who are thus trained in the restraint of the body
Have become liberated from all misfortune. {27}

“ ‘They are without fear among thieves,
Swindlers, criminals, and poisonous snakes.
In this way they have no conception of a self
And, liberated from that concept, they have no fear. {28}

“ ‘Those who are freed from fear do not become frightened.
As there is no fear, there is no instability.
How can those who are unshakable feel fear?
Even millions of māras cannot disturb them. {29}

“ ‘The one who benefits bodhisattvas
Explains and teaches the practice of restraint.
Even millions of māras cannot disturb
The one who has trained in this restraint of the body. {30}

“ ‘Unimpeded knowledge of the entire Dharma,
The complete eighty secondary signs,
And the thirty-two primary signs of a pure mind
Are not difficult to obtain for one established in restraint. {31}

“ ‘Whoever wishes to realize the qualities of a buddha,
Which are inconceivable and beyond measure,
Should train in this kind of restraint of the body
And become a shrine for the entire world. {32}

“ ‘Whoever wishes for these qualities of a great sage,
For the ten inconceivable strengths of a buddha,
Should train in this restraint of the body.
The strengths are not difficult to attain for one thus trained. {33}

“ ‘The eighteen distinct qualities of a buddha,
In which the jinas are established,
Are not difficult to attain for someone
Who has trained in this restraint of the body. {34}

“ ‘The seven limbs of enlightenment of the great sages,
And their discernments and bases of miraculous powers,
Are not difficult to attain for someone
Who has trained in this restraint of the body. {35}
