Adhyaya 43 — Portents of Death (Ariṣṭa-lakṣaṇas) and the Yogin’s Response; Alarka Renounces Kingship
ततस्त्यक्त्वा भयं सर्वं जित्वा तं कालमात्मवान् ।
तत्रैवावसथे स्थित्वा यत्र वा स्थैर्यमात्मनः ॥
tatas tyaktvā bhayaṃ sarvaṃ jitvā taṃ kālam ātmavān / tatraivāvasathe sthitvā yatra vā sthairyam ātmanaḥ
അതിനുശേഷം എല്ലാ ഭയവും ഉപേക്ഷിച്ച് ആ കാലത്തെ ജയിച്ച്, ആത്മസംയമിയൻ അതേ വാസസ്ഥലത്തിൽ തന്നെ നിലകൊള്ളണം—അല്ലെങ്കിൽ ആത്മസ്ഥൈര്യം ലഭിക്കുന്നിടത്ത് എവിടെയായാലും।

External circumstances are secondary; what matters is inner steadiness. The yogin ‘conquers time’ by refusing to be driven by fear and by staying established in practice.
A mokṣa/ācāra teaching segment, not genealogical or cosmological pancalakṣaṇa content.
‘Dwelling’ can be read as the heart-center (hṛdaya) where attention abides; stability there is portrayed as victory over the psychological tyranny of time.
