Srimad Bhagavatam — Ekadasha Skandha, Shloka 44
योगचर्यामिमां योगी विचरन् मदपाश्रय: । नान्तरायैर्विहन्येत नि:स्पृह: स्वसुखानुभू: ॥ ४४ ॥
yoga-caryām imāṁ yogī vicaran mad-apāśrayaḥ nāntarāyair vihanyeta niḥspṛhaḥ sva-sukhānubhūḥ
Yogi yang berlindung kepada-Ku menempuh amalan yoga ini tanpa ditewaskan oleh halangan; kerana dia tidak berkehendak dan merasai kebahagiaan jiwa di dalam dirinya.
According to Śrīla Śrīdhara Svāmī, the Supreme Lord has briefly described to Uddhava the essential wisdom of all the Upaniṣads, with the conclusion that pure devotional service to the Lord is the real means of ultimate liberation. In this regard Śrīla Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvatī Ṭhākura emphasizes that although haṭha-yogīs and rāja-yogīs try to make progress along their prescribed paths, they confront obstacles and often fail to achieve their desired goals. However, one who surrenders to the Supreme Lord will certainly be victorious on his spiritual path back home, back to Godhead.
