Karma-Yoga, Jñāna-Yajña, and Avatāra Instruction
तानि सर्वाणि संयम्य युक्त आसीत मत्पर: । वशे हि यस्येन्द्रियाणि तस्य प्रज्ञा प्रतेष्ठिता
tāni sarvāṇi saṁyamya yukta āsīta mat-paraḥ | vaśe hi yasyendriyāṇi tasya prajñā pratiṣṭhitā ||
فلذلك، بعد أن يكبح السالك جميع تلك الحواس، فليجلس في تأمّل ثابت، جاعلًا إيّاي الغاية العليا. فإن من كانت حواسّه في قبضته استقرّت حكمته وثبتت.

Educational Q&A
Mastery of the senses is presented as the practical foundation of stable wisdom: when the senses are brought under control and one remains disciplined and God-oriented (mat-paraḥ), the mind becomes steady and discernment (prajñā) stands firm.
In the Bhīṣma Parva’s Bhagavadgītā setting, instruction is being given on yoga and inner discipline amid the impending battle. The speaker urges a posture of controlled senses and focused contemplation, linking ethical steadiness in action to inner restraint and devotion.
