True safety from sin and suffering comes from inner mastery—especially conquest of the senses. One who attains steady inner sovereignty is not easily drawn into wrongdoing or the troubles that follow from it.
The Vyādha (hunter) continues his instruction on dharma, emphasizing that self-restraint and inner mastery are the foundation of righteous living and freedom from moral downfall.
