संनियम्येन्द्रियग्रामं सर्वत्र समबुद्धय:* । ते प्राप्तुवन्ति मामेव सर्वभूतहिते रता:,परंतु जो पुरुष इन्द्रियोंक समुदायको भली प्रकार वशमें करके मन-बुद्धिसे परे, सर्वव्यापी, अकथनीय स्वरूप और सदा एकरस रहनेवाले, नित्य, अचल, निराकार, अविनाशी सच्चिदानन्दघन ब्रह्मको निरन्तर एकीभावसे (अभिन्नभावसे) ध्यान करते हुए भजते हैं, वे सम्पूर्ण भूतोंके हितमें रत* और सबमें समान भाववाले योगी मुझको ही प्राप्त होते हैं?

Arjuna said: Those yogins who restrain the whole company of the senses, who maintain an equal-minded vision toward all, and who delight in the welfare of every being—such persons attain Me alone. The ethical emphasis is on self-mastery, impartiality, and active benevolence as the marks of true spiritual attainment.
