Chapter 15 • Verse 5

निर्मानमोहा जितसङ्गदोषा अध्यात्मनित्या विनिवृत्तकामाः। द्वन्द्वैर्विमुक्ताः सुखदुःखसंज्ञैर्गच्छन्त्यमूढाः पदमव्ययं तत्॥

nirmāna-mohā jita-saṅga-doṣhā adhyātma-nityā vinivṛitta-kāmāḥ dvandvair vimuktāḥ sukha-duḥkha-saṁjñair gachchhanty amūḍhāḥ padam avyayaṁ tat

Meaning

Free from pride and delusion, victorious over the evil of attachment, ever dwelling in the Self, desires completely stilled, liberated from the pairs of opposites known as pleasure and pain — the undeluded reach that imperishable goal.

Who reaches the eternal goal? Those free from ego and delusion, who conquered attachment, absorbed in the Self, free from desires, liberated from pleasure-pain dualities. These clear-minded ones attain the imperishable state.

Strength Reflection

"I free myself from ego, attachment, and dualities to reach the eternal goal."

Devotional Surrender

O Lord, free me from pride, delusion, and attachment so I may reach Your eternal abode.
