क्व तमः क्व प्रकाशो वा हानं क्व च न किञ्चन, निर्विकारस्य धीरस्य निरातङ्कस्य सर्वदा। ॥76॥
kva tamaḥ kva prakāśo vā hānaṁ kva ca na kiñcana, nirvikārasya dhīrasya nirātaṅkasya sarvadā. (76)
This verse suggests that a wise person remains calm and fearless, seeing beyond the concepts of darkness and light, gain and loss, recognizing that these distinctions do not truly exist. In their understanding, everything is unified and free from duality.
