**भावarth:** In the world, there is external wealth (Rajalakshmi) accumulated from elephants, horses, cows, bulls, etc. So, is there not an internal wealth (Antarang Lakshmi) arising from knowledge, meditation, and tranquility in the minds of yogis? Certainly, there is. And just as there are external women in this world, similarly, is there not a feminine form of Atmarati (love for the soul) residing in the minds of yogis? It is indeed there. Therefore, which wise person would abandon this independent happiness and desire dependent happiness? ||25||
**भावarth:** All the happiness in the world is dependent, perishable, momentary, tainted by desires, and fearful. Yet, a person with a foolish mind finds joy in it. But the wise, on the other hand, are immersed in independent, imperishable, free from the desire of senses, and fearless spiritual happiness. ||26||
**Tadetad bhaṣante jagadabhayadanam khalu bhavasvarupanudhyanam samasukhnidānam kṛtadhiyaḥ:** This is what the wise say: contemplation of the true nature of existence is the source of fearlessness in the world, and the foundation of peace and happiness. ||42||
