अगुं न करोति किंचि लोके सर्वयोगेहि विसृज्य बन्धनानि ।
सर्वत्र अनिश्रितो विमुक्तो नागो तायि प्रवुच्चति तथत्वा ॥ १२ ॥

aguṃ na karoti kiṃci loke sarvayogehi visṛjya bandhanāni |
sarvatra aniśrito vimukto nāgo tāyi pravuccati tathatvā || 12 ||

He who commits no wrong in the world, who sheds the bonds that tie him to all attachments, who is ever independent and free—such an one is truly called a Naga. (12)
