Even having performed unwholesome deeds, even deeds born of great sins, / the creature intent on meditation swiftly brings them to destruction. // 17
Having reached the total destruction of karma through application to meditation, O great sage, / the yogin remains fearless, endowed with supreme lordship. // 18
Desire and wrath, likewise attachment, malice, and fixed passion— / these are lower states; freed from these, one is liberated. // 19
Pride, hypocrisy, egotism, disputation, arrogance, and envy, / harshness and cruelty—these states are bound up with the warrior [nature]. // 8.177.20
He for whom these bewildering [qualities] do not exist, finds the self, the Lord; / he has transcended interior states of delusion, ever equal in suffering and happiness. // 21
