VASISTHA continued:
By such enquiry, Suraghu attained to the supreme state of conscious: Never again did he grieve; but from that time onwards he performed his work, remaining in a balanced state of mind. Compassionate, yet not uncontemptuous: not avoiding the pairs of opposites and not jealous; neither intelligent nor non-intelligent; neither motivated nor non-motivated — he lived with equal vision and inner calmness. He had realised that all this is but the diverse manifestation of consciousness. He was therefore peaceful in both pain and pleasure, having attained to the fullness of understanding.
