The list continues, and here is a subtlety easily missed.
Suptasya — “of one asleep”. He sleeps on the road of the round.
This is no vice but a virtue: he sleeps where all are awake. The world's affairs are for him what one does not notice in sleep.
Recall 2.46: “who moves as in deep sleep”.
The second half is of taste, and it repeats 2.54: he eats the pungent, the sour and the insipid as equal.
The word atyanta-pakva — “fully ripened”. Dispassion is named a fruit that has matured.
A good image. The unripe fruit is bitter and holds fast to the branch; the ripened one is sweet and falls of itself.
