The verse sums up the train of commands and introduces the word that explains what the mind is overpowered by: cetasā.
The mind (citta) is overpowered by consciousness (cetas). That is, not by another mind, but by what is greater than it.
This agrees with 4.91, where the citta was “swallowed” by the state of consciousness. The lesser is taken by the greater.
Viśoka — “griefless”. The word returns to 4.24, where the fruit of knowledge was named vīta-śoka.
Note the verb ālambya — “leaning on, taking hold of”. In a verse full of martial words a handhold suddenly appears: one holds to the griefless state as to a railing.
And last: nirātaṅka, “without dread”. Not merely “without fear”: ātaṅka is the stupor, the freeze. He who holds the railing does not go rigid.
