Vigour: Vigour, energy, brilliance. The aspirant who is bent on attaining salvation marches boldly on the spiritual path. Nothing can tempt him or slacken his progress. This unbroken progress towards the realisation of the Self or the Absolute is lustre. It overcomes the downward pull of Tamas.

Forgiveness: He who is endowed with this virtue does not exhibit anger even when he is insulted, rebuked or beaten, although he is strong enough to take vengeance. He is unaffected by the insult or injury.

Fortitude: The sage absorbs within himself all calamities. He is steadfast even when he is in very trying and most adverse conditions. This is a particular Sattwic vrtti or state of mind which removes depression or exhaustion of the body and senses when they sink down. An aspirant who is endowed with this divine attribute never gets disheartened, even when he is under severe trials and difficulties and tribulations. Dhrti is a divine tonic when the body and the senses are in a state of low spirits or dejection.

Purity: This is of two kinds , viz., external and internal.

External purity is done by means of earth and water.

Internal purity: The mind and heart (intellect) are free from Maya; free from deception, lust, anger, greed, pride, jealousy, hypocrisy, likes and dislikes. Purity is achieved by the practice of celibacy, forgiveness, friendliness, charity, humility, nobility, love, complacency, compassion, etc.

Absence of hatred: Freedom from malice.Includes absence of desire to injure others.

Absence of overweening pride: A proud man thinks that he is superior to others and that he is worthy of being honoured by others.

  The Divine Wealth or Daivi Sampat consists of these 26 attributes. This is a rare gift from the Lord. This is an inexhaustible wealth which cannot be taken away by thieves or robbers. This Daivi Sampat helps the aspirant attain the imperishable and immaculate Brahmic seat. It is the short cut to the realm of eternal bliss or moksha.
