II श्रीराम जय राम जय जय राम II

म्हणे अर्जुना परियेसीं I जो हा अभिलाषु प्रौढ मानसीं I तो अंतराय स्वसुखेंसीं I करीत असे II 291 II
जो सदा नित्यतृप्तु I अंतःकरणभरितु I परी विषयामाजीं पतितु I जेणें संगें कीजे II 292 II
तो कामु सर्वथा जाये I जयाचें आत्मतोषीं मन राहे I तोचि स्थितप्रज्ञु होये I पुरुष जाणे II 293 II

"Listen attentively said Lord Krishna to Arjun. One of the major impediments to attaining the ecstasy of the Self is the strong inclination to worldly pleasures. The Jeev (individual being) by nature is eternally content. However as soon as it comes in contact with the senses it deviates from its path. The profound impact the senses have on the Jeev is called Kam. An unruffled person exudes a natural sense of tranquility and groundedness that is deeply admirable. Such individuals, the Sthitapradnya possess emotional intelligence, allowing them to detach from the momentary whirlwind of external events while maintaining an authentic sense of self."
