antaḥsaktaṃ mano baddhaṃ muktaṃ saktivivarjitam ,
antaḥsaṃsaktirevaikaṃ kāraṇaṃ bandhamokṣayoḥ 34

34. A mind that is internally attached is bound, while a mind devoid of attachment is liberated. Indeed, internal attachment alone is the sole cause for both bondage and liberation (mokṣa).

34. חשיבה הנגועה בהיקשרות פנימית היא כבולה, ומשוחררת כשהיא נטולת היקשרות. ההיקשרות הפנימית היא הסיבה היחידה לכבלים ולשחרור.
