अनादि निधनं जन्तुम आत्मयॊनिं सदाव्ययम अनौपम्यम अमूर्तं च भगवान आह बुद्धिमान तपॊ मूलम इदं सर्वं यन मां विप्रानुपृच्छसि ॥ ३-२०२-१६ ॥

sanskrit

'Such a person is described by the omnipotent, all-knowing Spirit as being without beginning or end, self-existent, immutable, incorporeal, and incomparable. This, O Brahmana, is the essence of what you have inquired about, and it is the result of true self-discipline. And this self-discipline can only be acquired by subduing the senses.' ॥ 3-202-16 ॥

इन्द्रियाणां परसङ्गेन दॊषम ऋच्छत्य असंशयम संनियम्य तु तान्य एव ततः सिद्धिम अवाप्नुते ॥ ३-२०२-१९ ॥

sanskrit

'By indulging in the senses, a person undoubtedly acquires vices, but by subduing them, he attains salvation. The self-restrained individual, who gains mastery over the six senses inherent in our nature, remains untainted by sin, and thus, evil holds no power over him.' ॥ 3-202-19 ॥

sanskrit

'Man's corporeal body is likened to a chariot, his soul to the charioteer, and his senses to the horses. A skilled person navigates life without confusion, much like a calm charioteer with well-trained horses.' ॥ 3-202-20 ॥
