439. He who through his illumination never differentiates the Jiva and Brahman, as well as Brahman and the universe, is known as a man liberated-in-life.
साधुभिः पूज्यमानेऽस्मिन्पीड्यमानेऽपि दुर्जनैः ।
समभाषो भवेद्यस्य स जीवन्मुक्तलक्षणः ॥ ४४० ॥
440. He who feels just the same when his person is either worshipped by the good or tormented by the wicked, is known as a man liberated-in-life.

लीयन्ति सन्मात्रतया न विक्रिया
मुत्पादयन्त्येष यतिर्विमुक्तः ॥ ४४१ ॥
441. The Sannyasin in whom sense-objects directed by others are engulfed like flowing rivers in the sea and produce no change, owing to his identity with the Existence Absolute, is indeed liberated.
['Directed by others-i. e., which others thrust on him. Whatever comes within his knowledge but strengthens his identity with Brahman.
