योगस्थः कुरु कर्मणि संग त्यकत्वा धनंजय । सिध्दाौ असिध्दयोः समो भूत्वा समत्वंयोग उच्यते ॥ (2/48) बुद्धियुक्तो जहाति-इह उभे सुकृत-दुष्कृते ।
तस्मात्-योगाय युज्यस्व योगः कर्मसु कौशलम् ॥(2/50) The description of the way, leading beyond 'trigunas' of 'Nature, to defragmentation of mind, continues. Sri Krishna says, "Seeing success & failure as of equal value, be free of attachment (to fruit of action) and thus perform action. Such 'equanimity is yoga'. Acting with unified intellect, you stand delivered from the bandage of good & evil deeds, this is also called 'perfection is action (Karma-Yoga)'.
शुति-विप्रतिपन्ना ते यदा स्थास्पति निश्चला।
समाधौ-अचला बुद्धि-तदा योगम् अवाप्स्यसि।। (2/53) Acting like this one will go beyond the field of 'trigunas' of Nature & flowery language of Vedic-Rivals will not disturb one's (human) discrimination. One will remain unshakable & steadfast in one's 'self.
स्थित प्रजस्य का भाषा समाधिस्थस्य केशव । स्थितथीः किं प्रभाषेत किमासीत जेत किम ।(2/54)
Happy moment: After landing into the state of deep dejection, Arjuna now makes his first thoughtful query. He says, "O Keshava, what is the description of the man of steady wisdomH.." He is in desired communication with the Lord now. Rest would just be a matter of time! May everyone get one's 'Krishna' when one needs Him.
