Shloka 64
🌟 Sanskrit:
रागद्वेषविमुक्तैस्तु विषयानिन्द्रियैश्चरन् |
आत्मवश्यैर्विधेयात्मा प्रसादमधिगच्छति || 2.64 ||
🌟 Transliteration:
rāga-dveṣa-vimuktais tu viṣayān indriyaiś caran |
ātma-vaśyair vidheyātmā prasādam adhigacchati ||
🌟 Meaning:
But one who is free from all attachment and aversion and is able to control their senses, even while moving among sense objects, can attain the complete mercy of the Lord.
🌟 Explanation:
Krishna presents the alternative to the downward spiral: the path of regulated freedom. This verse does not advocate for running away from the world. Instead, it describes a person who can "move among" sense objects (viṣayān... caran) but does so with senses that are completely under control (ātma-vaśyaiḥ). The key is that they are free from the twin forces of attachment (rāga) and aversion (dveṣa). By interacting with the world in this masterful, detached way, they attain prasādam—a state of profound peace, clarity, and divine grace.
Shloka 65
🌟 Sanskrit:
प्रसादे सर्वदुःखानां हानिरस्योपजायते |
प्रसन्नचेतसो ह्याशु बुद्धिः पर्यवतिष्ठते || 2.65 ||
🌟 Transliteration:
prasāde sarva-duḥkhānāṁ hānir asyopajāyate |
prasanna-cetaso hy āśu buddhiḥ paryavatiṣṭhate ||
🌟 Meaning:
Once one is in this state of divine grace (prasādam), the three-fold miseries of material existence are no longer a bother. In such a joyful state, one's intelligence soon becomes firmly established.
🌟 Explanation:
Krishna explains the consequences of attaining prasādam. In this state of inner tranquility, all sorrows and miseries (sarva-duḥkhānām) are destroyed. The mind becomes cheerful and satisfied (prasanna-cetasaḥ). And in this joyful, peaceful state of mind, the intelligence (buddhiḥ) naturally becomes steady and unwavering. This shows that a peaceful heart is the prerequisite for a sharp and steady intellect.
Today’s Takeaway
Freedom is not escape, but mastery. True spiritual strength isn't found by hiding from the world, but by learning to live in it without being controlled by it. When you can engage with life's pleasures and pains without attachment or aversion, you achieve a state of grace where peace is your natural condition and your intelligence becomes crystal clear. 🧘♀️💎
JAI SHRI KRISHNA👏💓💕💫🙏
