Chapter 2 · Verse 68
Sankhya Yoga
सांख्ययोग
In plain words
You must completely withdraw your senses from their worldly objects to secure your wisdom. When you master your desires, your mind stops wandering wildly and becomes steady. This self-control frees you from the binding cycle of karma, or action and reaction, allowing your spiritual understanding to remain firmly established and unshakable.
Translation
2.68 Therefore, O mighty-armed, he whose senses are restrained from going after their objects on all sides, his wisdom is firmly set.
Meaning
When the senses are completely controlled the mind cannot wander wildly in the sensual grooves. It becomes steady like the lamp in a windless place. The Yogi is now established in the Self and his knowledge is steady. (Cf. III.7).
