वीतरागभयक्रोधा मन्मया मामुपाश्रिताः | बहवो ज्ञानतपसा पूता मद्भावमागताः
vītarāgabhayakrodhā manmayā māmupāśritāḥ . bahavo jñānatapasā pūtā madbhāvamāgatāḥ
许多摆脱了执著、恐惧和愤怒，全心投入我，以我为皈依，并经由知识的苦行而得以净化的人，已达到我的境界。
Many who were devoid of attachment, fear and anger, who were absorbed in Me, who had taken refuge in Me, and were purified by the austerity of Knowledge, have attained My state.
当一个人获得对自性（Atman）的知识时，对感官对象的执著便会止息。当他认识到自己是恒常、不朽、永恒的自性，而变化仅仅是身体的属性时，他便会变得无所畏惧。当他变得无欲无求，摆脱自私，处处只看到自性时，愤怒又怎能在他心中生起？凡是皈依梵（Brahman）或绝对者的人，便会坚定地奉献于他，全心投入他。知识的苦行（Jñānatapas）是智慧之火，正如火能焚烧棉花，这种智慧之火也能焚烧所有潜在的习性、渴望、心识印记、罪恶和一切业（Karma），从而净化修行者。
When one gets knowledge of the Self? attachment to senseobjects ceases. When he realises he is the constant? indestructible? eternal Self and that change is simply a ality of the body? then he becomes fearless. When he becomes desireless? when he is free from selfishness? when he beholds the Self only everywhere? how can anger arise in himHe who takes refuge in Brahman or the Absolute becomes firmly devoted to Him. He becomes,absorbed in Him (Brahmalina or Brahmanishtha). Jnanatapas is the fire of wisdom. Just as fire burns cotton? so also this Jnanatapas burns all the latent tendencies (Vasanas)? cravings (Trishnas)? mental impressions (Samskaras)? sins and all actions? and purifies the aspirants. (Cf.II.56IV.19to37).
