Kāmanaṁ vippahīnaṁ, sabbaso na upeti gacchati; Santakāyo vippamutto, santa-citta upaṭṭhitaṭaṇhā.

Kāmanaṁ vippahīnaṁ, sabbaso na upeti gacchati; santakāyo vippamutto, santa-citta upaṭṭhitaṭaṇhā.

Having abandoned desire, completely freed, one goes nowhere. Body pacified, mind liberated, the thirst that established itself is gone.

Na upeti gacchati — does not go anywhere. Where would one without desire go? Desire is what projects the future, what creates the need to go.

Santakāyo — pacified body. Peace begins not in the mind, it manifests first as physical relaxation, softness of body.
