Chapter 6: Verse-27
prasänta-manasam hy enam
TRANSLATION
The yogi whose mind is fixed on Me verily attains the highest perfection of transcendental happiness. He is beyond the mode of passion, he realizes his qualitative identity with the Supreme, and thus he is freed from all reactions to past deeds. PURPORT
Brahma-bhüta is the state of being free from material contamination and situated in the transcendental service of the Lord. Mad-bhaktim labhate paräm [2] One cannot remain in the quality of Brahman, the Absolute, until one’s mind is fixed on the lotus feet of the Lord. Sa vai manahkrsna-pädäravindayoh. To be always engaged in the transcendental loving service of the Lord, or to remain in krsna consciousness, is to be factually liberated from the mode of passion and all material contamination.
Chapter 6: Verse-28
yunjann evam sadätmänam
TRANSLATION
Thus the self-controlled yogi, constantly engaged in yoga practice, becomes free from all material contamination and achieves the highest stage of perfect happiness in transcendental loving service to the Lord. PURPORT
Self-realization means knowing one’s constitutional position in relationship to the Supreme. The individual soul is part and parcel of the Supreme, and his position is to render transcendental service to the Lord. This transcendental contact with the Supreme is called brahma-samsparsa.
