Description of the Path of Meditation
चित्तस्य हि प्रसादेन हित्वा कर्म शुभाशुभम् । प्रसन्नात्मा55त्मनि स्थित्वा सुखमानन्त्यमश्लुते
cittasya hi prasādena hitvā karma śubhāśubham | prasannātmā ātmani sthitvā sukham ānantyam aśnute ||
চিত্ত প্ৰসন্ন আৰু শুদ্ধ হ’লে মানুহে শুভ-অশুভ কৰ্মৰ প্ৰতি থকা আসক্তি ত্যাগ কৰে। তেতিয়া সি প্ৰসন্নচিত্তে আত্মস্বৰূপত স্থিত হৈ অনন্ত সুখৰ আস্বাদ লাভ কৰে।
भरद्वाज उवाच
Mental clarity (citta-prasāda) enables detachment from identification with ‘good’ and ‘bad’ actions as result-producing labels. Established in the Self, one experiences limitless bliss—suggesting liberation is grounded in inner purification and Self-abidance rather than in moral bookkeeping alone.
In Śānti Parva’s instruction on peace and liberation, Bharadvāja speaks as a teacher, describing the inner transformation of a seeker: the mind becomes serene, attachment to auspicious/inauspicious karma is relinquished, and the person rests in the Self, tasting infinite happiness.
