Shloka 27
ध्यानयोगः — Dhyāna-Yoga
Discipline of Meditation and Mental Restraint
भीष्मपर्वणि तु सप्तविंशोडध्याय:
sarvāṇīndriya-karmāṇi prāṇa-karmāṇi cāpare | ātma-saṁyama-yogāgnau juhvati jñāna-dīpite ||
还有一些人，将诸根的一切活动，乃至诸气（生命之息）的一切作用，都作为祭献投入由智慧点燃、照耀的自制瑜伽之火中。

Educational Q&A
The verse teaches an inner form of yajña: instead of external offerings, the practitioner offers the activities of the senses and the movements of the vital breaths into the ‘fire’ of self-restraint, sustained by clear knowledge. Ethical mastery comes from disciplined, knowing regulation of one’s faculties.
In the Gītā discourse on various kinds of sacrifice, a category of yogins is described: they practice inward austerity and control, treating sensory and prāṇic activity as oblations, and self-restraint as the sacrificial fire illuminated by wisdom.
