6.34
चञ्चलं हि मनः कृष्ण प्रमाथि बलवद्दृढम् ।
तस्याहं निग्रहं मन्ये वायोरिव सुदुष्करम् ॥
చఞ్చలం హి మనః కృష్ణ ప్రమాథి బలవద్దృఢమ్ ।
తస్యాహం నిగ్రహం మన్యే వాయోరివ సుదుష్కరమ్ ॥
cañcalaṃ hi manaḥ kṛṣṇa pramāthi balavaddṛḍham |
tasyāhaṃ nigrahaṃ manye vāyoriva suduṣkaram ||
About chapter 6
Krishna teaches the practice of meditation (dhyāna): one must lift oneself by one’s own mind, for the mind is both friend and enemy. He describes the seat, posture, moderation in food and sleep, and how to steady a restless mind through practice and detachment. No effort on this path is ever lost, and the yogi who worships with devotion is the highest.
