The terrified world and the brāhmaṇa at peace

Śag_5.1

This world is ever frightened, this people ever agitated, whether by sufferings not yet arisen or by those already arisen; if there is anything at all that is unafraid, tell me, since I ask.

Śag_5.2

Not apart from the austerity of knowledge, not apart from restraint of the senses, not apart from the total relinquishment of all—nowhere else do I see liberation, O deity.

Śag_5.3

After so long, ah, I behold a {{brāhmaṇa:true brāhmaṇa|in the Buddhist sense, the saint or arhat}} fully quenched, gone beyond all enmity and fear, who has crossed the clinging that is in the world.
