WHO IS A SAGE

Neither through matted locks nor through fiery lectures and erudition nor through the exhibition of miracles does one attain perfection in knowledge of the Sell. He in whom the two currents of attraction and repulsion, egoism, lust and anger are destroyed in toto is ever peaceful and happy. He is a liberated sage.
If desires and attachment to objects disappear completely, and if you are in that immovable state, you have become a liberated sage.
