Chapter 2
Sankhya Yoga
45. The Vedas impart actions of the three-fold modes. But Arjuna, you become free of the three-fold modes (which promise the pleasures of heavens). Freed of the pain of opposites and firmly established in Truth, neither desiring acquisition nor in preservation, be possessed of the Self.
Bhashya :- Now spraks about the Intelligence of Yoga (Equanimity) and the other matters relating to the three modes. The Vedas appear outwardly as having the purpose relating to the three-fold modes of enjoyment of heavens. But “the Vedas contain secret meaning”, thus has it been said. Therefore, do not become deluded by the outward form (of the Vedas). This is the meaning. It is declared that interpretations could be about the doubts, not that they deny the truths of the Vedas. In the Vedas, Ramayana, Puraanas and similarly in (Maha) Bharata, in the beginning, middle and in the end, Sri Vishnu alone is ever eulogized. „All the Vedas speak of his form alone‟. The whole of the Vedas, the Scriptures and their recollections, the action of the noble people and the love for self are the foundations of the Perennial Principles. what the Vedas speak is righteousness and what is contrary to that is unrighteousness. Thus in Vedas, the supremacy of Sri Vishnu, as ever abiding self is so declared. Anything in support or against this is spoken as righteousness or unrighteousness
