अक्षरब्रह्मयोगः | Akṣara-Brahma-Yoga

The Yoga of the Imperishable Brahman

प्रशान्तमनसंः होनं योगिनं सुखमुत्तमम्‌ । उपैति शान्तरजसंए ब्रह्मभूतमकल्मषम्‌*,क्योंकि जिसका मन भली प्रकार शान्त है, जो पापसे रहित है और जिसका रजोगुण शान्त हो गया है, ऐसे इस सच्चिदानन्दघन ब्रह्मके साथ एकीभाव हुए योगीको उत्तम आनन्द प्राप्त होता है

praśāntamanasaṁ hy enaṁ yoginaṁ sukham uttamam | upaiti śāntarajasaṁ brahmabhūtam akalmaṣam ||

アルジュナは言った。「心がすみずみまで鎮まり、罪と内なる穢れを離れ、ラジャス(激情・動揺)が静まり、ブラフマンと一如となったヨーギーに、至上の安楽は到来する。ギーターの倫理的教えにおいて、この歓喜は征服の報酬ではなく、内なる浄化と、義務の圧力のただ中で揺るがぬ自己統御が結ぶ果である。」

Educational Q&A

Supreme happiness arises for the yogin when the mind is fully pacified, passion is quieted, and moral-spiritual impurity is removed; such a person becomes established in Brahman, and bliss follows as a natural consequence of inner purity and steadiness.

In the dialogue on the battlefield, Arjuna is responding within the teaching on meditation and yoga, acknowledging that the culmination of disciplined practice is a state of calm, purity, and Brahman-abidance that yields the highest joy—even while one stands amid the demands of dharma and impending war.
