ASHTAVAKRA GITA : THE SONG OF ASHTAVAKRA 

 

18.61 A fool often shows aversion towards his belongings, but for him whose attachment to the body has dropped away, there is neither attachment nor aversion.

18.62 The mind of the fool is always caught in an opinion about becoming or avoiding something, but the wise man's nature is to have no opinions about becoming and avoiding.

18.63 For the seer who behaves like a child, without desire in all actions, there is no attachment for such a pure one even in the work he does.

18.64 Blessed is he who knows himself and is the same in all states, with a mind free from craving whether he is seeing, hearing, feeling, smelling or tasting.

18.65 There is no man subject to samsara, sense of individuality, goal or means to the goal for the wise man who is always free from imaginations, and unchanging as space.
