अध्याय दुसरा

II श्रीराम जय राम जय जय राम II

म्हणोनि आइकें पार्था I यांतें निर्दळी जो सर्वथा I सर्व विषयीं आस्था I सांडूनियां II 315 II
तोचि तूं जाण I योगनिष्ठेसि कारण I जयाचें विषयसुखें I अंतःकरण I झकवेना II 316 II
तो आत्मबोधयुक्तु I होऊनि असे सततु I तो मातें हृदयाआंतु I विसंबेना II 317 II
येऱ्हवीं बाह्य विषय तरी नाहीं I परी मानसीं होईल जरी काहीं I तरी साद्यंतुचि पाहीं I संसारु असे II 318 II
जैसा कां विषाचा लेशु I घेतलियां होत बहुवसु I मग निभ्रांत करी नाशु I जीवितासि II 219 II
तैसी विषयाची शंका I मनीं वसती देखा I घातु करी अशेखा I विवेकजाता II 320 II

"Lord Krishna said to Arjun, Sthitapradnya is thus a state of mind that empowers one to remain calm and composed amidst the onslaught of the senses, responding thoughtfully rather than reacting impulsively. Such Self Realized soul remains absorbed in me all the time. Outwardly one may appear to have attained the renunciation of worldly desires but if their longing still persists from within then as such nothing has changed. Just like even a drop of poison is enough to cause death, similarly even a trace of worldly desires is enough to corrupt the ability of a person to think with reason."
