नासौ किंचिन्न तत्किंचित्कृतं तेन महात्मना ।
नासौ कलङ्कमाप्नोति हेम पङ्कगतं यथा ॥ ५६ ॥

nāsau kiṃcinna tatkiṃcitkṛtaṃ tena mahātmanā |
nāsau kalaṅkamāpnoti hema paṅkagataṃ yathā || 56 ||

The man of indifference is nothing in himself, and therefore his doings are no acts of his own. He is not polluted by impurity, as the pure gold is not sullied by dirt or dust.
