जीवनमुक्तसमाधिस्थः करोत्वसुरनाथताम् ।
मणिर्मुक्तमनस्कारः प्रतिबिम्बक्रियामिव ॥ २२ ॥

jīvanamuktasamādhisthaḥ karotvasuranāthatām |
maṇirmuktamanaskāraḥ pratibimbakriyāmiva || 22 ||

Let that self ridden (swayam-mukta) and somnolent (samadhistha) prince, reign unconcerned (amanaskara) over the Daitya race; as the unconscious pearl reflects the colours of its adjacent objects.
