Adhyāya 51: Kṛṣṇa’s Leave-Taking and Departure for Dvārakā (द्वारकागमनानुमति)

जो सब पापोंसे मुक्त रहकर सबकी सृष्टि करता है, उस अखण्ड आत्माको क्षेत्रज्ञ समझना चाहिये। जो मनुष्य उसका ज्ञान प्राप्त कर लेता है, वही वेदवेत्ता है ।। चित्तं चित्तादुपागम्य मुनिरासीत संयत: । यच्चित्तं तन्‍्मयो वश्यं गुह्ममेतत्‌ सनातनम्‌,मुनिको उचित है कि चिन्तनके द्वारा चेतना (सम्यग्ज्ञान) पाकर मन और इन्द्रियोंको एकाग्र करके परमात्माके ध्यानमें स्थित हो जाय; क्योंकि जिसका चित्त जिसमें लगा होता है, वह निश्चय ही उसका स्वरूप हो जाता है--यह सनातन गोपनीय रहस्य है

cittaṃ cittād upāgamya munir āsīta saṃyataḥ | yac cittaṃ tan-mayo vaśyaṃ guhyaṃ etat sanātanam ||

Vāyu said: Therefore, one should recognize the stainless, undivided Self—the knower of the field (kṣetrajña), free from all sin and the source of all creation. The person who truly knows That alone is a genuine knower of the Veda. Having brought the mind back to its own source, the sage should remain self-restrained; for whatever the mind is absorbed in, it inevitably becomes conformed to that very reality—this is the ancient, secret principle.
