ด้วยความตั้งมั่นในโยคะแห่งสมาธิ และด้วยภาวะแห่งสมาธิขั้นลึก ข้าแต่ผู้มีรูปอันอนันต์ พวกเขาเพ่งพินิจแดนทุรียะอันเหนือโลกของพระองค์ เมื่อพ้นจากทุกข์ทั้งปวงแล้ว สัตว์ผู้มีร่างกายย่อมไม่ถูกความกลัวครอบงำอีก เพราะได้บรรลุพรหมันอันเที่ยงแท้ เหนือคำนึกคิด ไร้เบื้องต้น และไร้ที่สุด

FAQs
It presents moksha as the fruit of dhyāna and samādhi: by realizing the Lord’s turīya (transcendent) state/abode—identified with eternal, inconceivable Brahman—one becomes free from affliction and fear.
Turīya literally means “the fourth,” pointing to a transcendent state beyond ordinary waking, dreaming, and deep sleep—here described as the Lord’s supreme abode/state realized through meditation.
Steady contemplative practice (single-pointed meditation leading to samādhi) is portrayed as a discipline that dissolves fear and suffering by anchoring the mind in the eternal and beginningless reality.
