Translation
Sri Bhagavan said: Fearlessness, purity of heart, steadfastness in knowledge-Yoga, charity, self-restraint, sacrifice, self-study, austerity and straightforwardness. Non-violence, truth, absence of anger, renunciation, peace, refraining from slander (not speaking ill of others), compassion toward all beings, absence of greed, gentleness, modesty, steadiness. O Bharata! Splendour, forgiveness, fortitude, purity, absence of malice and absence of arrogance—these are all the marks of one who has attained divine wealth.
