अर्जुन उवाच | योऽयं योगस्त्वया प्रोक्तः साम्येन मधुसूदन | एतस्याहं न पश्यामि चञ्चलत्वात्स्थितिं स्थिराम्
arjuna uvāca . yo.ayaṃ yogastvayā proktaḥ sāmyena madhusūdana . etasyāhaṃ na paśyāmi cañcalatvātsthitiṃ sthirām
Arjuna sprach: O Madhusudana (Krishna), dieses Yoga, das Du als Gleichmut beschrieben hast, dessen beständiges Fortbestehen sehe ich aufgrund der Unruhe (des Geistes) nicht.
Arjuna said O Madhusudana (Krsna), this Yoga that has been spoken of by You as sameness, I do not see its steady continuance, owing to the restlessness (of the mind).
Da der Geist unruhig, ungestüm und unbeständig ist, fällt es mir schwer, dieses von Dir verkündete Yoga des Gleichmuts zu praktizieren. O mein Herr, ich kann keine beständige Konzentration des Geistes aufrechterhalten, da er im Handumdrehen hierhin und dorthin wandert.
As the mind is restless? impetuous and unsteady I find it difficult to practise this Yoga of eanimity declared by Thee. O my Lord? I cannot have steady concentration of the mind? as it wanders here and there in the twinkling of an eye.
