Srimad Bhagavad Gita -Ramanujacharya

Chapter-6 Dhyāna Yogaḥ

Sri Krishna explains how this is so: prāpya puṇya-kṛtāṃ lokān uṣitvā śāśvatīḥ samāḥ | śucināṃ śrīmatāṃ gehe yoga-bhraṣṭo ‘bhijāyate || 41 || 41. Having attained to the realms of the righteous and dwelt there for many long years, one who has fallen from Yoga is born again in the house of the pure and prosperous. Commentary This person, who has drifted away from the path of Self-realisation because of desire for any kind of material enjoyment whatsoever, will gain those very enjoyments through the excellence of Yoga alone. Having attained to the realms attained by those who do meritorious acts, one dwells there for a long time, until all desire for such enjoyments is exhausted. Then, free of desire this person who has fallen from Yoga at the very beginning, is born, by virtue of the excellence of Yoga, in a family of those who are competent in their practice of Yoga.
