Translation

လူတို့သည် ချစ်ခင်လာကြပြီး၊ မိမိမရှိသည့်အခါတောင် မိမိ၏ဂုဏ်သတ္တိများကို ချီးမွမ်းပြောဆိုကြသည်။ သတ္တဝါတို့လည်း (သူ့ကို) မကြောက်ရွံ့ကြ။ ဤသည်မှာ စိဒ္ဓိ (siddhi) ရရှိခြင်း၏ အလွန်ကောင်းမြတ်သော လက္ခဏာဖြစ်သည်။

FAQs

What is the philosophical or ethical takeaway?

A genuine yogic state expresses as harmlessness and beneficence: others feel safe, and praise arises naturally without self-advertisement.

How does this fit the Pancalakshana (5 characteristics)?

Ethical-psychological yogic teaching; not pancalakṣaṇa.

What is the esoteric significance?

Fearlessness in others suggests the yogin’s prāṇa is non-agitating; a stabilized field of mind (citta) is perceived by living beings as ‘abhaya’ (non-threat).
