तस्माद् यस्य महाबाहो निगृहीतानि सर्वश: । इन्द्रियाणीन्द्रियार्थेभ्यस्तस्य प्रज्ञा प्रतिष्ठिता,इसलिये हे महाबाहो! जिस पुरुषकी इन्द्रियाँ इन्द्रियोंक विषयोंसे सब प्रकार निग्रह की हुई हैं,“ उसीकी बुद्धि स्थिर है

ゆえに、強き腕の者よ、あらゆる仕方で諸感官をその対象から抑え制した人—その智慧は確立して揺るがない。

Educational Q&A
Steady wisdom (prajñā) is recognized by mastery over the senses: when the senses are fully restrained from chasing their objects, the mind becomes stable and discernment remains clear, enabling dharmic action.
In the Bhīṣma Parva dialogue on the battlefield context, the speaker addresses Arjuna as “mighty-armed” and states a criterion for true steadiness of understanding: complete restraint of the senses from their objects.
