Mokṣa-dharma Yoga-Upadeśa: Equanimity, Sense-Restraint, and Vision of the Ātman (आत्मदर्शन-योगोपदेशः)
अन्यान्याश्षैव तनवो यशथेष्टं प्रतिपद्यते । विनिवृत्य जरां मृत्युंन शोचति न हृष्पति
anyānyāś caiva tanavo yathā-iṣṭaṁ pratipadyate | vinivṛtya jarāṁ mṛtyuṁ na śocati na hṛṣyati ||
ພຣາຫມັນກ່າວວ່າ: «ໂຢຄີນັ້ນສາມາດຮັບເອົາຮ່າງກາຍອື່ນໆຕາມທີ່ປາດຖະໜາ. ເມື່ອຫັນກັບຄວາມແກ່ແລະຄວາມຕາຍໃຫ້ຖອຍໄປ ລາວບໍ່ໂສກ ແລະບໍ່ຫຼົງຍິນດີ».

Educational Q&A
The core teaching is equanimity born of yogic realization: even extraordinary attainments (such as assuming forms at will) are secondary to the inner freedom that neither collapses into grief nor rises into elation.
A Brāhmaṇa speaker describes the capacities and inner state of a perfected yogin—able to take on bodies at will and to overcome the fear of aging and death—while emphasizing the hallmark of such perfection: freedom from emotional extremes.
