पूर्वाभ्यासेन तेनैव ह्रियते ह्यवशोऽपि सः ।
जिज्ञासुरपि योगस्य शब्दब्रह्मातिवर्तते ॥
పూర్వాభ్యాసేన తేనైవ హ్రియతే హ్యవశోఽపి సః ।
జిజ్ఞాసురపి యోగస్య శబ్దబ్రహ్మాతివర్తతే ॥
pūrvābhyāsena tenaiva hriyate hyavaśo’pi saḥ |
jijñāsurapi yogasya śabdabrahmātivartate ||
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.
