薄伽梵歌 5.23

「瑜伽相應者」（Yukta）意指和諧或堅定於瑜伽（Yoga）或安住於自我。慾望與憤怒是和平的強大敵人，要消滅它們非常困難。你必須付出極大的努力來摧毀這些敵人。當「慾望」（Kama）一詞被廣泛使用時，它包括各種慾望；在特殊意義上，它指情慾。「在此世」意指活著的時候。慾望的衝動是心意的騷動，表現為毛髮豎立和愉悅的表情。憤怒的衝動是心意的騷動，表現為目光如火、出汗、咬唇和身體顫抖。在這節詩中，你會清楚地明白，控制了慾望和憤怒的人，是這個世界上最幸福的人，而非擁有巨額財富、美麗妻子和可愛孩子的人。因此，你必須盡力根除慾望和憤怒，它們是永恆幸福的可怕敵人。慾望（Kama）是對愉悅和合意之物的渴望，這些事物帶來快樂，且是被看見、聽聞或記憶的。憤怒是對不愉悅和不合意之物的厭惡，這些事物帶來痛苦，且是被看見、聽聞或記憶的。一位瑜伽士控制了慾望和憤怒所生的衝動，摧毀了愛憎的潮流，透過安住於內在的自我，達到了心意的平等，因此他非常幸福。(參見《薄伽梵歌》第六章第18節)

Yukta means harmonised or steadfast in Yoga or selfabiding.Desire and anger are powerful enemies of peace. It is very difficult to annihilate them. You will have to make very strong efforts to destroy these enemies.When the word Kama (desire) is used in a general sense it includes all sorts of desires. It means lust in a special sense.While still here means while yet living. The impulse of desire is the agitation of the mind which is indicated by hairs standing on end and cheerful face. The impulse of anger is agitation of the mind which is indicated by fiery eyes? perspiration? biting of the lips and trembling of the body. In this verse you will clearly understand that he who has controlled desire and anger is the most happy man in this world? nor he who has immense wealth? a beautiful wife and beautiful children. Therefore you must try your level best to eradicate desire and anger? the dreadful enemies of eternal bliss.Kama (desire) is longing for a pleasant and agreeable object which gives pleasure and which is seen? heard of? or remembered. Anger is aversion towards an unpleasant and disagreeable object which gives pain and which is seen? heard or? or remembered.A Yogi controls the impulse born of desire and anger? destroyes the currents of likes and dislikes,and attains to eanimity of the mind? by resting in the innermost Self? and so he is very happy.(Cf.VI.18)
