अध्वर्यु–यति संवादः
Adhvaryu–Yati Dialogue on Svabhāva, Ahiṃsā, and Mokṣa
समस्य सर्वभूतेषु निर्ममस्य जितात्मन: । समन्तात् परिमुक्तस्य न भयं विद्यते क्वचित्
samasya sarvabhūteṣu nirmamasya jitātmanaḥ | samantāt parimuktasya na bhayaṃ vidyate kvacit ||
婆罗门说道：对于那对一切众生平等无偏、无所占有、能自制其心、并从四面八方的系缚中全然解脱之人，恐惧不生——无论何时何地。其伦理旨趣在于：恐惧由执著与自我认同所滋养；当它们借由内在的主宰与普遍的平等心而被舍离时，心便坚固不动，难以撼摇。
ब्राह्मण उवाच
Educational Q&A
Fearlessness is the fruit of inner freedom: when a person becomes even-minded toward all beings, abandons possessiveness (‘mine-ness’), and masters the self, fear has no foothold anywhere.
A Brahmin speaker delivers a reflective teaching on spiritual psychology: bondage arises from attachment and egoic ownership, while complete release and equanimity lead to a state where fear cannot occur.
