To whom pain, pleasure, and sleep are all the same; to whom a cold, a stone, and a lump of gold are all the same; to whom both the pleasant and unpleasant things are equal; who is firm-minded; to whom blame and personal commendation are equal.

Who accepts pain and pleasure as it comes, is centred in his Self, to whom a piece of clay or stone or gold are the same, who neither likes nor dislikes, who is steadfast, indifferent alike to praise or censure;

He who is alike in pleasure and pain, who dwells in his self, who looks upon a clod, a stone and piece of gold as of equal value, who remains the same towards things dear and hateful and who is intelligent, who regards both blame and praise of himself as equal;

He to whom sorrow and happiness are alike, who is established in his own Self, to whom a lump of earth, iron and gold are the same, to whom the agreeable and the disagreeable are the same, who is wise, to whom censure and his own praise are the same;

Alike in pleasure and pain, who dwells in the Self, to whom a clod of earth, stone and gold are alike, to whom the dear and the unfriendly are alike, firm, the same in censure and praise,
