25. The sages who are free from the pairs of opposites, whose minds are well directed and who are
devoted to the welfare of all beings, become cleansed of all impurities and attain the bliss of the
Brahman.

Commentary

The sages (rishis) are those who are dedicated to the pursuit of Self-realisation. They are devoted to the welfare of all beings — that is, they are as interested in the welfare of all other beings as they are in their own; those persons who attain this state are freed from all impurities which are hindrances to enlightenment, and they attain to the bliss of the Brahman.
