Bhagavad Gita — Chapter 18, Verse 53

Moksha Sanyasa Yoga

अहङ्कारं बलं दर्पं कामं क्रोधं परिग्रहम् । विमुच्य निर्ममः शान्तो ब्रह्मभूयाय कल्पते ॥ ५३ ॥

ahankāraṁ balaṁ darpaṁ kāmaṁ krodhaṁ parigraham vimuchya nirmamaḥ śhānto brahma-bhūyāya kalpate

Translation

having given up ego, force, arrogance, desire, anger and possessiveness, free from "mine" and at peace, one becomes fit for oneness with Brahman.

Hindi Meaning (हिंदी अर्थ)

अहंकार, बल, घमंड, काम, क्रोध और परिग्रह (संग्रह) को त्यागकर, ममता-रहित और शांत पुरुष ब्रह्म-भाव को प्राप्त होने योग्य होता है।

Commentary

The list of what must go closely mirrors the demonic qualities of 16.18: ego, force, arrogance, desire and anger. What remains is nirmamah shantah, free of "mine" and at peace. Such a person brahma-bhuyaya kalpate, "becomes fit to be Brahman," the same phrase as 14.26.
