ज्ञेयः स नित्यसंन्यासी यो न द्वेष्टि न काङ्क्षति | निर्द्वन्द्वो हि महाबाहो सुखं बन्धात्प्रमुच्यते
jñeyaḥ sa nityasaṃnyāsī yo na dveṣṭi na kāṅkṣati . nirdvandvo hi mahābāho sukhaṃ bandhātpramucyate
不憎恨亦不贪求者,应被视为恒常的弃绝者。噢,大臂者,他超脱于二元对立,轻松解脱束缚。
He who does not hate and does not crave should be known as a man of constant renunciation.
一个人并非仅仅因为懒惰、无知、家庭纠纷、灾难或失业而放弃行动,就能成为一个弃绝者(Sannyasi)。一个真正的弃绝者绝非虚伪的懦夫。业瑜伽士,既不憎恨痛苦和带来痛苦的事物,也不贪求快乐和带来快乐的事物;他对任何感官对象既无执着也无厌恶;他超脱于冷热、苦乐、成败、胜负、得失、褒贬、荣辱等二元对立——这样的人,即使恒常行动,也应被视为一个永恒的弃绝者。一个人无需正式出家,只要具备上述心境,他就是一个永恒的弃绝者。仅仅身披袈裟并不能使人成为弃绝者。真正需要的是一颗纯洁的心,以及对自我主义和欲望的真正舍弃。对物质的表面舍弃根本不是真正的弃绝。
A man does not become a Sannyasi by merely giving up actions because of laziness or ignorance or some family arrel or calamity or unemployment. A true Sannyasi is not a hypocritical coward.The Karma Yogi who neither hates pain and the objects which give him pain? nor desires pleasure and the objects that give him pleasure? who has neither attachment nor aversion to any senseobject and who has risen above the pairs of heat and cold? joy and sorrow? success and failure? victory and defeat? gain and loss? praise and censure? honour and dishonour? should be known as a perpetual Sannyasi though he is ever engaged in action.One need not have taken Sannyasa formally but if he has the above mental attitutde? he is a perpetual Sannyasi. Mere ochrecoloured robe cannot make one a Sannyasi. What is wanted is a pure heart with true renunciation of egoism and desires. Physical renunciation of objects is no renunciation at all. (Cf.VI.1)
