Chapter-6 Dhyāna Yogaḥ

yato yato niścarati manaś-cañcalam asthiraṃ | tatas-tato niyamyaitad-ātmanyeva vaśaṃ nayet || 26 || 26. Wherever the fickle and unsteady mind wanders, one should subdue it then and there, and bring it back under the control of the Self alone. Commentary Whenever the mind, on account of its fickle and unsteady nature, wanders away one should subdue it, bring it under control, and return it to the contemplation on the incomparable bliss of the ātman.
