Bhagavad Gita : Chapter II - 62

Attachment to objects

Dhyayato Vishayan Pumsaha Sangasteshuupa Jayate|

Sangath Sanjayate Kamaha Kamath Krodhobhi Jayate||

Once a man begins to think about material things, he gets attached to those objects. Out of that attachment is born desire and out of the desire comes anger, when there is an obstacle between you and the object you desire, then anger arises at the apparent cause of the obstacle. - SS

Bhagavad Gita : Chapter II - 61

Drawn to me

Taani Sarvani Samyamya Yukta Aseeta Matparaha|

Vashehi Yasyendriyani Tasya Pragnya Pratishtitha||

Sri Krishna tells Arjuna that by collecting all the sense organs into one focal point within and seated in yoga, meditating upon the supreme consciousness, the one who is drawn within is called a person of steady intellect. - Swahilya Shambhavi.

Bhagavad Gita : Chapter II - 60

Nature of the senses to go outward

Yatatohyapi Kaunteya Purushasya Vipaschitaha|

Indriyani Pramatheeni Haranthi Prasabham Manaha||

Arjuna, the senses are by nature prone to turbulence. Even for the most intelligent and balanced Purusha, who makes an effort towards self-realisation, when swayed by desires of the senses, the mind is dragged forcibly outward. - Swahilya Shambhavi.

Bhagavad Gita - II : 59

Nothing moves within

Vishaya Vinivartante Niraharasya Dehinaha|

Rasavarjam Rasopyasya Param Drishtva Nivartate||

When a man of steady wisdom has an intellect rooted in consciousness, there is a cerebral transformation that happens. While for a person who does not subject himself to sensory stimuli through the organs of perception and action, the drive or energy still is ready to function when the input is given. In a man of steady wisdom, who has experienced the supreme truth, even this driving force whithin that causes enjoyment or repulsion when subject to sensory stimuli ceases to exist. - Swahilya Shambhavi (Pix: Swahilya Shambhavi - Anaikatti.)

Bhagavad Gita - II: 58

Draw in like a tortoise

Yada samharate Chayam Kurmonganeeva Sarvashaha|
Indriyaneendriyarthebhyaha Tasya Pragnya Pratishtitha||
Just as a tortoise draws all parts of its body into the shell in times of danger, if a human being is able to withdraw his sense organs of smell, touch, taste, sight and hearing and the sense organs of action - hands, feet, speech, reproduction and excretion at times when they are not needed to be used, such a person becomes rooted in consciousness. - Swahilya Shambhavi

Bhagavad Gita - II - 57

Rooted in consciousness

Yahsarvatraanabhisnehaha Tattathprapya Shubhashubham|
Nabhinandati Nadweshti Tasya Pragnya Pratishthitha||

One who does not rest his affections everywhere and in every person or thing, the one who does not feel overjoyed while attaining to the pleasant and auspicious and does not express hate in encountering the unpleasant or inauspicious experiences, that person's intellect is well rooted in awareness. - Swahilya Shambhavi.

Bhagavad Gita - !! - 56

One in sorrow and joy

Duhkheshwanidwignamanaha sukheshu vigathaspruhaha|
Veetha raaga bhaya krodhaha sthithadheermuniruchyate||

When faced by sorrow, the one who does not get disturbed in mind and when faced by joyous moments - the one who is not elated by that too and the one who is cut off from attachment, fear and anger is one of steady intellect. - Swahilya Shambhavi.
