One whose mind is untroubled in sorrows, who is free from longing amid pleasures, and from whom passion, fear, and anger have departed, is called a sage of steady wisdom.
दुःखेष्वनुद्विग्नमनाः सुखेषु विगतस्पृहः | वीतरागभयक्रोधः स्थितधीर्मुनिरुच्यते ||२-५६||
The Bhagavad Gita, translated and commentated by S. Radhakrishnan, is one of the most scholarly and accessible English renderings of Hinduism's most beloved scripture — the dialogue between Arjuna and Lord Krishna on the battlefield of Kurukshetra. Radhakrishnan, philosopher and statesman, brings both rigorous intellectual insight and genuine spiritual depth to his translation and notes. This edition is treasured for its ability to illuminate the Gita's universal spiritual teaching across cultural and philosophical boundaries.
The mind does not become tranquil until it is connected to the ever-peaceful Supreme Being.
Seek the treasure of a peaceful mind and store it in the treasure of ease. All the wealth of your lands and seas is not worth a loyal heart and a tranquil mind.
