सर्वभूतस्थितं यो मां भजत्येकत्वमास्थितः । सर्वथा वर्तमानोऽपि स योगी मयि वर्तते॥६-२८-३१॥
The yogin who worships Me as abiding in all beings, established in oneness—though acting in every way—abides in Me.
english translation
आत्मौपम्येन सर्वत्र समं पश्यति योऽर्जुन । सुखं वा यदि वा दुःखं स योगी परमो मतः॥६-२८-३२॥
O Arjuna, one who sees equality everywhere by comparing others with himself—whether in pleasure or in pain—is regarded as the highest yogin.
english translation
अर्जुन उवाच । योऽयं योगस्त्वया प्रोक्तः साम्येन मधुसूदन । एतस्याहं न पश्यामि चञ्चलत्वात्स्थितिं स्थिराम्॥६-२८-३३॥
Arjuna said: This yoga you have taught, O Madhusūdana, as equanimity—I do not see a stable continuance of it, because of the mind’s restlessness.
english translation
चञ्चलं हि मनः कृष्ण प्रमाथि बलवद्दृढम् । तस्याहं निग्रहं मन्ये वायोरिव सुदुष्करम्॥६-२८-३४॥
For the mind, O Kṛṣṇa, is indeed restless—turbulent, powerful, and obstinate. I deem its restraint exceedingly difficult, like restraining the wind.
english translation
श्रीभगवानुवाच । असंशयं महाबाहो मनो दुर्निग्रहं चलम् । अभ्यासेन तु कौन्तेय वैराग्येण च गृह्यते॥६-२८-३५॥
The Blessed Lord said: Undoubtedly, O mighty-armed one, the mind is difficult to restrain and is restless; yet, O son of Kuntī, it is brought under control by sustained practice and by dispassion.
