Bhagavad Gita 14.24

Who is the same in pleasure and pain, who dwells in the Self, to whom a clod of earth, a stone, and gold are all alike, who is the same to the dear and the unfriendly, who is firm, and to whom censure and praise are one and the same.

Who accepts pain and pleasure as they come, is centered in their Self, to whom a piece of clay, stone, or gold are all the same, who neither likes nor dislikes, who is steadfast, indifferent alike to praise or censure;

He to whom sorrow and happiness are alike, who is established in his own Self, to whom a lump of earth, iron, and gold are the same, to whom the agreeable and the disagreeable are the same, who is wise, to whom censure and his own praise are the same;

जो धीर मनुष्य सुख-दुःखमें सम तथा अपने स्वरूपमें स्थित रहता है; जो मिट्टीके ढेले, पत्थर और सोनेमें सम रहता है जो प्रिय-अप्रियमें तथा अपनी निन्दा-स्तुतिमें सम रहता है; जो मान-अपमानमें तथा मित्र-शत्रुके पक्षमें सम रहता है जो सम्पूर्ण कर्मोंके आरम्भका त्यागी है, वह मनुष्य गुणातीत कहा जाता है।
