Wisdom

He whose mind is undismayed in pain, who is freed from longings for pleasure; from who passion, fear, and wrath have fled, is called a man of steady wisdom, a saintly man.
He who is free from all attachments and who, whatever fair or foul fortune may come to him, neither rejoices it nor loathes it, has wisdom set in permanence.
