“For the self-conquered and fully calm, the supreme Self is steady — amidst cold and heat, joy and pain, honor and dishonor.”
— Original plain-language translation
Mastery shows as weatherproof calm across three opposites: climate, feeling, and social regard. The supreme Self is not gained here but recognized as already steady. Equanimity reveals presence.
