Who is complete in virtue, through self-discipline; having elevated the self with virtue, one’s virtue does not decay.

Repetition of verse 405, emphasizing uddharattānaṃ — having elevated one’s own being. Virtue elevates, it does not oppress.

Sīlaṃ na hīyati — virtue does not decay. When virtue is genuine, it does not require effort to maintain. It is a new nature, not a mask.
