न प्रभावेण नो मानैर्नाशामरणजीवितैः ॥ १८ ॥

na tasyārtho nabhogatyā na siddhyā na ca bhogakaiḥ |
na prabhāveṇa no mānairnāśāmaraṇajīvitaiḥ || 18 ||

He has neither the aerial journey, nor any supernatural power or worldly enjoyment for his object; and neither is earthly glory or honour in his view, nor does he desire to live nor fear to die.
