CHAPTER 6
The Yog of Meditation

ज्ञानविज्ञानतृप्तात्मा कूटस्थो विजितेन्द्रिय:।
युक्त इत्युच्यते योगी समलोष्टाश्मकाञ्चन: ॥8॥

[ “The yogi, whose mind is quenched with knowledge-both divine and intuitive, whose devotion is steady and constant, who has conquered his senses well, and who makes no distinction between objects ostensibly as different as earth, rock, and gold, is said to have realized God.’’ ]

The yogi who has achieved this state is said to be endowed with yog. He has reached the crowning point of yog which Yogeshwar Krishn has portrayed in verses 7-12 in Chapter 5. Perception of God and the consequent enlightenment are knowledge. The worshipper is but grovelling in the mire of ignorance if there is even the slightest distance between him and the adored God and the desire to know him remains unfulfilled.
