Adhyaya 41 — Yogic Conduct and the Discipline Leading to Siddhi
विशुद्धबुद्धिः समलोष्टकाञ्चनः समस्तभूतेṣu च तत्समाहितः ।
स्थानं परं शाश्वतमव्ययञ्च परं हि मत्वा न पुनः प्रजायते ॥
viśuddhabuddhiḥ samaloṣṭakāñcanaḥ samastabhūteṣu ca tatsamāhitaḥ / sthānaṁ paraṁ śāśvatam avyayañ ca paraṁ hi matvā na punaḥ prajāyate
پاکیزہ فہم کے ساتھ مٹی کے ڈھیلے اور سونے کو برابر جان کر، تمام بھوتوں میں اسی تَتْو کی طرف ثابت قدم رہ کر، پرم دھام کو ابدی اور غیر فانی سمجھ کر—وہ پھر جنم نہیں لیتا۔

Freedom is tied to value-neutrality: when gold and clay no longer dictate desire/fear, the mind becomes fit for steady contemplation of the imperishable, culminating in release from rebirth.
Soteriological teaching (mokṣa-upadeśa), not pancalakṣaṇa narration. Purāṇas frequently interleave such teachings to orient ritual and social dharma toward liberation.
‘Clod and gold equal’ signals dissolution of saṁskāras of acquisition; ‘That in all beings’ points to a unitive contemplation where multiplicity is read as the one Brahman.
