58. Whatever misery, anxiety and intolerable difficulty (may overtake a man), they are lost in the tranquil mind like darkness in the sun. 59. The mind of no living being is so delighted with moon beams, as that of the peaceful man from his heart-felt joy. 60. The virtuous man that is calm and quiet, and friendly to all living beings, feels the benign influence of highest truths appearing of themselves in his mind. 61. As all children whether good or bad, have a strict faith in their mother, so all beings here have a reliance on the man of an even disposition. 62. Neither does a cooling ambrosial draught nor the kind embrace of prosperity, afford such gratification to the soul, as one’s inward satisfaction of the mind. 63. Whether afflicted by diseases or disasters, or dragged by the rope of avarice, do you bear up yourself, O Ráma, by the equanimity of your mind. 64. Whatever thou dost and eatest with the calm coolness of thy mind, all that is sweeter far to the soul than anything sweet to taste. 65. The mind that is overpowered by the ambrosial flavour of quietism and desists from activity, may have the body lacerated (for a time), but it will be filled up shortly. 66. Neither imps nor goblins, demons or enemies, nor tigers nor snakes, ever annoy a peaceful man. 67. He who has his mind and body well guarded by the invulnerable armour of meekness, can never be pierced by the shafts of adversity; but remains as the thunder-stone impenetrable by arrows. 68. The king seated in his palace is not so graceful to sight, as the quiet peaceful man is graced by his equanimity and clearness of understanding. 69. No one is so delighted at seeing a thing dearer than his life, as by the satisfaction which he feels at the sight of a contented and peaceful man. 70. He who lives a holy life with his gentle and peaceful conduct, is said to be truly living in this world and no other. 71. The sober minded, meek and honest man pleases every one by all that he does, and as it were captivates all beings to himself. 72. He is called the meek who neither feels pleasure or pain at the sight, touch or hearing and tasting of anything good or bad (to the senses). 73. He who is indifferent to all objects, and neither leaves nor longs for any thing; but keeps his senses and appetites under subjection, is called a saint. 74. Whoso knowing all things both internally as well as externally with a clear understanding, attends and looks to his own concerns, he is verily said to be a saint. 75. He whose mind is as calm as moon beams both at the approach of a feast or fighting, and even at the moment of death, is said to be a saint. 76. Who though present at a place, neither rejoices nor murmurs at any thing, but remains as if he were absent from it, and conducts himself as quietly as if he were fast asleep; such a one is called a saint. 77. He whose complaisant look casts a graceful nectarious radiance on all around him, is said to be a saint.
