Worth noting is the phrase sva-atma-aramata, "delighting in one's own self," for it is a famous phrase. Atma-arama means "having a garden within oneself," from arama, "garden, grove, delight." The image is good: such a person has a garden within, and hence does not go out to walk.
This word stands in one of the most-discussed verses of the Bhagavatam — atmaramash cha munayo nirgrantha apy urukrame kurvanty ahaitukim bhaktim ittham-bhuta-guno harih (1.7.10). Its translation is: "and those who delight in themselves, the silent sages, free of bonds — even they render causeless devotional service to the Wide-Strider; such are the qualities of Hari." This verse deserves examination, for it is the chief Vaishnava answer to exactly this stage.
It is said: even the atmarama, that is, one who has attained the very state described here, does not remain in it. The reason is named: ittham-bhuta-guno harih, "such are the qualities of Hari" — that is, His qualities are such that they attract even one who needs nothing further. That is, the argument is built not on the state's insufficiency, but on the attractiveness of the object: one does not leave the garden because it is bad there, but because something better has turned out to be outside.
This verse is examined at length in its literature and is famous for Chaitanya having interpreted it sixty-one ways; but its main sense is the one stated here.
