अर्जुन उवाच । कैर्लिङ्गैस्त्रीन्गुणानेतानतीतो भवति प्रभो । किमाचारः कथं चैतांस्त्रीन्गुणानतिवर्तते ॥ २१ ॥
arjuna uvācha kair liṅgais trīn guṇān etān atīto bhavati prabho kim āchāraḥ kathaṁ chaitāns trīn guṇān ativartate
Translation
Arjun said: By what signs is one known who has gone beyond these three gunas, O Lord? How does such a person behave, and how do they pass beyond the three gunas?
Hindi Meaning (हिंदी अर्थ)
अर्जुन बोले: हे प्रभो! इन तीनों गुणों से अतीत हुआ पुरुष किन लक्षणों से पहचाना जाता है? उसका आचरण कैसा होता है, और वह इन तीनों गुणों को कैसे पार करता है?
Commentary
Arjun asks three practical questions: what are the marks, what is the conduct, and what is the means. They echo his question in 2.54 about the sthita-prajna, the person of steady wisdom. The Gita repeatedly returns to this concern: what does the goal look like in an actual human life?
