Adhyāya 222 — ब्रह्मस्थानप्राप्ति: मोक्षधर्मे समत्वव्रतम्
Attaining the Brahman-Station: The Vow of Equanimity in Mokṣadharma
Devanagari script
विकारानेव यो वेद न वेद प्रकृतिं पराम् । तस्य स्तम्भो भवेद् बाल्यान्नास्ति स्तम्भो5नुपश्यत:
Translation
Quien conoce sólo las transformaciones (los efectos) y no conoce la Naturaleza suprema (prakṛti), en él—por inmadurez del discernimiento—surge una rigidez: ya sea engaño, ya sea soberbia. Pero quien lo contempla con exactitud no tiene tal obstáculo.
