Chapter 2
Sankhya Yoga

60. O Arjuna, even though the man ever strives and is discerning, his senses forcibly pull his mind towards confusion.
Bhashya :- Even the wise one without the spiritual experience and resorting to ordinary methods, is overwhelmed by senses. What then is the fault of that person who prides about his body? p`maaqaIina means the person who is assailed by troubles.
61. Bringing them (all the senses) under control, lie should remain firmly attuned towards Me. He who brings his senses under. control his awareness is well-established.
Bhashya :- It is not possible in normal conditions, thus Sri Krishna says in this verse. But with repeated effort it is possible. Therefore, efforts should be continued; thus it is concluded. 'yuktah' means one whose mind is attuned towards the Lord, for He alone is the Supreme, best amongst all. 'matparah' means the one attuned towards the Lord. The benefits of attuning, surrendering (to Him) are mentioned hereunder later.
