Astavakta Gita,
Chapter 14
-- Of
Fearlessness
King Janaka
14.1
He who by nature is empty minded,
and who thinks of things only unintentionally,
is freed from deliberate remembering -
like one awakened from a dream.
14.2
When my desire has been eliminated,
I have no wealth, friends, robber senses,
scriptures or knowledge?
14.3
Realising my supreme self-nature -
in the Person of the Witness, the Lord,
and the state of desirelessness in bondage or liberation,
I feel no inclination for liberation.
14.4
The various states of one who is empty of uncertainty within,
and who outwardly wanders about as he pleases like a madman,
can only be known by someone in the same condition.
