षड्वर्गसंयमैकान्ताः सर्वा नियमचोदनाः । तदन्ता यदि नो योगानावहेयुः श्रमावहाः ।। ७-१५-२८ ‌।।

sanskrit

Ritualistic ceremonies, regulative principles, austerities and the practice of yoga are all meant to control the senses and mind, but even after one is able to control the senses and mind, if he does not come to the point of meditation upon the Supreme Lord, all such activities are simply labor in frustration. ।। 7-15-28 ।।

english translation

अनुष्ठान (कर्मकाण्ड), विधि-विधान, तपस्या तथा योगाभ्यास—ये सभी इन्द्रियों तथा मन को वश में करने के लिए हैं, किन्तु इन्द्रियों तथा मन को वश में कर लेने के बाद भी यदि वह भगवान् का ध्यान नहीं करता तो ये सारे कार्यकलाप श्रम के अपव्यय मात्र हैं। ।। ७-१५-२८ ।।
