वीतरागभयक्रोधा मन्मया मामुपाश्रिताः | बहवो ज्ञानतपसा पूता मद्भावमागताः
vītarāgabhayakrodhā manmayā māmupāśritāḥ . bahavo jñānatapasā pūtā madbhāvamāgatāḥ
許多人,已擺脫執著、恐懼與憤怒,專注於我,皈依於我,並藉由知識的苦行而得淨化,已達到我的境界。
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.
當一個人獲得阿特曼(Atman)的知識時,對感官對象的執著便會止息。當他領悟到自己是恆常、不朽、永恆的阿特曼(Atman),而變化僅是身體的屬性時,他便會變得無所畏懼。當他變得無欲,當他擺脫自私,當他處處只見阿特曼(Atman)時,憤怒又怎能在他心中生起?皈依梵(Brahman)或絕對者的人,會對祂堅定不移地奉獻。他會專注於祂(梵林那 Brahmalina 或 梵尼什塔 Brahmanishtha)。智行苦(Jnanatapas)是智慧之火。正如火能燃燒棉花,智行苦(Jnanatapas)也能燃燒所有潛在習性(瓦薩那 Vasanas)、渴望(特里什那 Trishnas)、心靈印記(桑斯卡拉 Samskaras)、罪惡和所有行為,並淨化修行者。(參見 II.56,IV.19至37)
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).
