Adhyaya 38 — Dattatreya on Non-Identification (Mamata) and the Path to Liberation
सोऽहं न दुःखी न सुखी यतोऽहं प्रकृतेः परः ।
यो भूताभिभवो भूतैः सुखदुःखात्मकॊ हि सः ॥
so 'haṃ na duḥkhī na sukhī yato 'haṃ prakṛteḥ paraḥ |
yo bhūtābhibhavo bhūtaiḥ sukhaduḥkhātmako hi saḥ ||
是故我既不忧亦不喜，因为我超越于普拉克里蒂（物质自然）。凡为诸有与诸缘所制伏者，实由乐与苦所构成。
