શત્રુ મિત્ર પ્રત્યે વર્તે સમદર્શિતા, માન અમાને વર્તે તે જ સ્વભાવ જો; જીવિત કે મરણે નહીં ન્યૂનાધિતા, ભવ મોક્ષ પણે શુદ્ધ વર્તે સમભાવ જો. અપૂર્વ.૧૦
Let me have equanimity To friend and foe Honor and dishonor Let me be indifferent to life and death, Let me remain in a pure state Whether I am in this world Or in the liberated state (MOKSHA).

Here Shrimad describes the picture of an internally balanced and detached monk (NIRGRANTH)). The monk treats friend and foe, life and death, with equanimity and is not influenced by bestowed honor or dishonor. To him, life and death, rebirth and liberation are equal. At this stage, he is free even from a desire for the liberated state (MOKSHA).
