sarva-bhuta-sthitam yo mam
bhajaty ekatvam asthitah। sarvatha vartamano ’pi sa yogi mayi vartate॥ 6.31 ॥ |
Such a yogi, who engages in the worshipful service of the Super soul, knowing that I and the Super soul are one, remains always in Me in all circumstances.
atmaupamyena sarvatra
samam pasyati yo ’rjuna। sukham va yadi va duhkham sa yogi paramo matah॥ 6.32 ॥ |
He is a perfect yogi who, by comparison to his own self, sees the true equality of all beings, in both their happiness and their distress, O Arjuna!
Arjuna Uvacha। |
yo ’yam yogas tvaya proktah
samyena madhusudana। etasyaham na pasyami chanchalatvat sthitim sthiram॥ 6.33 ॥ |
Arjuna said: O Sri Krishna, the system of yoga which You have summarized appears impractical and unendurable to me, for the mind is restless and unsteady.
chanchalam hi manah krishna
pramathi balavad drdham। tasyaham nigraham manye vayor iva su-duskaram॥ 6.34 ॥ |
Arjuna said: For the mind is restless, turbulent, obstinate and very strong, O Krishna, and to subdue it, I think, is more difficult than controlling the wind.
sri-bhagavan uvacha
asamsayam maha-baho
mano durnigraham chalam। abhyasena tu kaunteya vairagyena cha grhyate॥ 6.35 ॥ |
O mighty-armed Arjuna, it is undoubtedly very difficult to curb the restless mind, but it is possible by suitable practice and by detachment.
asamyatatmana yogo
dusprapa iti me matih। vasyatmana tu yatata sakyo ’vaptum upayatah॥ 6.36 ॥ |
For one whose mind is unbridled, self-realization is difficult work. But he whose mind is controlled and who strives by appropriate means is assured of success. That is My opinion.
