219. Eleven advantages can be observed in the freedom of mind through the practice of love, by making love grow, by making much of it, by making love a vehicle and basis, by persisting in it, by becoming familiar with it, and by establishing it well. What eleven? One sleeps happily; one wakes happily; one has no bad dreams; one is dear to both humans and non-humans; one is guarded by the gods; fire, poison and swords do not affect one; the mind concentrates quickly; the complexion becomes radiant; one dies without bewilderment; and if one develops no further, one will reach at least to the Brahmā world.
