The Steady Mind (Sthitaprajna)

श्रीभगवानुवाच | प्रजहाति यदा कामान्सर्वान्पार्थ मनोगतान् |

“Krishna answers: "When a person completely lets go of every craving that pulls at the mind — and finds deep satisfaction within themselves, needing nothing from outside — that person has steady wisdom."”

आपूर्यमाणमचलप्रतिष्ठं समुद्रमापः प्रविशन्ति यद्वत् |

“Krishna paints a final picture for Arjuna: "Think of the ocean. Rivers pour into it from every direction, constantly, endlessly. But the ocean stays completely still and full. A truly peaceful person is like that — desires keep flowing in, but they remain absolutely unmoved."”
