They are defined by extreme forgiveness, extraordinary natural calmness, uprightness, gentleness, endurance, and incomparable contentment.

The text further elaborates that a saint is one who is constantly immersed in the Self, always satisfied with whatever comes spontaneously, and who exists beyond the dualities of pleasure and pain.
