क्व प्रवृत्तिर्निवृत्तिर्वा क्व मुक्तिः क्व च बन्धनम्, कूटस्थनिर्विभागस्य स्वस्थस्य मम सर्वदा। ॥10॥
kva pravṛttirnivṛttirvā kva muktiḥ kva ca bandhanam, kūṭasthanirvibhāgasya svasthasya mama sarvadā. (10)
This verse expresses the idea that for someone who truly understands their true nature as unchanging and whole, the concepts of action, rest, freedom, and limitation lose their meaning. It emphasizes the realization of one's true self beyond worldly experiences.
