Janaka said:

That one who is by nature empty-minded
and is through inadvertence thinking about objects
as if asleep although awake,
he/she verily had exhausted worldly life recollections. 14.1

When my desires has melted away then,
where is wealth, where friends,
where ramifications of the senses of the body,
where are the scriptures and where the knowledge ?? 14.2

As I have realized the Supreme Self to be
the Witness and the Lord,
I have become indifferent to bondage and liberation
and feel no anxiety for emancipation. 14.3

The condition of one who is devoid of doubts,
and outwardly moves about at his/her own pleasure,
can only be understood by those like them. 14.4

XIV   Tranquillity.
