This enemy has been slain by me, powerful as I am. I shall slay other enemies also—I who am heroic and valiant. What is the use of the conception of destiny, which is only an imagination of weak people of little understanding? Similarly: I am ‘the lord,’ viz., I am independent, and I am also the ruler of others. I am the ‘enjoyer,’ viz., I am the enjoyer through my own powers, and not through good fortune etc. I am ‘successful,’ viz., I am successful by myself and not through any destiny etc. Likewise, I am strong and happy by myself.
