buddhyā viśhuddhayā yukto dhṛityātmānaṁ niyamya cha śhabdādīn viṣhayāns tyaktvā rāga-dveṣhau vyudasya cha

Translation

Endowed with a purified intellect, restraining the self with resolve, giving up sound and the other sense objects, and casting aside attraction and aversion,

Hindi Meaning (हिंदी अर्थ)

विशुद्ध बुद्धि से युक्त होकर, धृति से मन को वश में करके, शब्द आदि विषयों को त्यागकर, और राग-द्वेष को छोड़कर,

Commentary

Verses 51–53 form one sentence describing the mature seeker. It begins with the inner work: a clear intellect, self-control through resolve, and releasing the pull of both likes and dislikes. These are the sattvic buddhi and dhriti described in verses 30 and 33.
