Śrī Rāma said: O Lord, best among the knowers of the Self (ātman), if this is the situation, what indeed is that extraordinary or unprecedented excellence that belongs to a person who is liberated while living (jīvanmukta) and possesses true wisdom?
श्रीवसिष्ठ उवाच ।

Śrī Vasiṣṭha said: In some particular aspect, an exceptional intellect (dhīḥ) arises for the knower. Such a person, ever content (nityatṛpta) and with a tranquil Self (ātman) (praśāntātmā), abides solely in the Self (ātman).
मन्त्रसिद्धैस्तपःसिद्धैस्तन्त्रसिद्धैश्च भूरिशः ।

Actions such as flying through the sky have been abundantly performed by those perfected through mantras, those perfected through austerity (tapas), and those perfected through tantras. What unprecedented quality (apūrvatā) could there be in that?
अणिमाद्यपि संप्राप्तं तादृशैरेव भूरिशः ।
यत्नेन साधितत्वात्तैर्नेतरेणात्मदर्शिना ॥ ४ ॥
यत्नेन साधितत्वात्तैर्नेतरेणात्मदर्शिना ॥ ४ ॥

Even powers like "aṇimā" (the ability to become minute) have been abundantly attained by such persons (those perfected through mantras, austerity (tapas), etc.). This is because these powers are achieved through strenuous effort by them, and not by the knowers of the Self (ātman).

This indeed is his special characteristic: he is not like those with dull intellects. Because he abandons attachment everywhere, his mind is pure and free from desire. Possessing such a great intellect, he does not become absorbed in worldly objects.
एतावदेव खलु लिंगमलिंगमूर्तेः संशान्तसंसृतिचिरभ्रमनिर्वृतस्य ।
तज्ज्ञस्य यन्मदनकोपविषादमोहलोभापदामनुदिनं निपुणं तनुत्वम् ॥ ६ ॥

Indeed, this alone is the true characteristic of one whose form is beyond attributes, who is liberated from the long-standing delusion of the cycle of rebirth (saṃsāra), and who is a knower of Reality (Brahman): that there is a skillful and constant diminishing, day by day, of the afflictions of lust, anger, sorrow, delusion (moha), and greed.
