Explanation
The description of meditation concludes. With senses, mind (manas) and understanding (buddhi) brought under control, the muni, the contemplative, who is wholly intent on mokṣa, liberation, and free from desire, fear and anger, is forever free. The word sadā, always, suggests that such a person is not waiting for freedom in the future but already lives in it. The practice outlined in the previous verse is thus linked to the inner qualities that it serves: stillness of mind and freedom from disturbing emotions.
