न बिभ्यति च सत्त्वानि सिद्धेर्लक्षणमुच्यते
na bibhyati ca sattvāni siddherlakṣaṇamucyate
Bahawa makhluk hidup tidak lagi takut kepadanya—itulah yang dinyatakan sebagai tanda siddhi (pencapaian rohani).
Sūta (Lomaharṣaṇa) to the sages (deduced from Māheśvarakhaṇḍa context)
Scene: A siddha seated quietly; deer and birds gather nearby without fear; even a snake rests peacefully; the atmosphere is still, indicating non-violence and inner mastery.
True attainment expresses itself as harmlessness and a calming presence—others naturally feel no fear.
This verse is part of the lead-in to the Gautama-liṅga/Ahalyā-saras context in the same chapter, but this specific line itself is a general yoga teaching.
No specific rite is prescribed in this verse; it defines a sign of siddhi.
