Yoga Definition and Sāṃkhya Enumeration
यदा व्यपेतहल्लेखं मनो भवति तस्य वै | नानृतं चैव भवति तदा कल्याणमृच्छति,जब मनुष्यका मन कामना और कर्म-संस्कारोंसे रहित हो जाता है तथा वह मिथ्याचारसे रहित हो जाता है, उस समय उसे कल्याणकी प्राप्ति होती है
yadā vyapetahallekhaṁ mano bhavati tasya vai | nānṛtaṁ caiva bhavati tadā kalyāṇam ṛcchati ||
ಯಾವಾಗ ಮನುಷ್ಯನ ಮನಸ್ಸು ಕಾಮನೆಗಳೂ ಕರ್ಮಸಂಸ್ಕಾರಗಳೂ ಬಿಟ್ಟ ಕಲ್ಮಷ ಗುರುತುಗಳಿಂದ ದೂರವಾಗುತ್ತದೆ, ಮತ್ತು ಅವನು ಅಸತ್ಯ ಹಾಗೂ ವಂಚನೆಯಿಂದಲೂ ಮುಕ್ತನಾಗುತ್ತಾನೆ, ಆಗ ಅವನು ಕಲ್ಯಾಣವನ್ನು ಪಡೆಯುತ್ತಾನೆ.
पराशर उवाच
Welfare (kalyāṇa) arises from inner purification: the mind must be cleansed of harmful stains/impulses and one must abandon untruth. Ethical truthfulness and mental clarity together are presented as the direct cause of spiritual good.
In Śānti Parva’s instruction-oriented setting, Parāśara delivers a concise teaching on self-discipline: he defines the condition under which a person reaches kalyāṇa—when the mind is free from taints and one’s conduct is free from falsehood.
