श्रीभगवानुवाच । प्रजहाति यदा कामान्सर्वान्पार्थ मनोगतान् । आत्मन्येवात्मना तुष्टः स्थितप्रज्ञस्तदोच्यते ॥ ५५ ॥
śhrī bhagavān uvācha prajahāti yadā kāmān sarvān pārtha mano-gatān ātmany-evātmanā tuṣhṭaḥ sthita-prajñas tadochyate
Translation
The Blessed Lord said: O Parth, when a person gives up all the desires that arise in the mind, and is content in the self by the self, then they are called one of steady wisdom.
Hindi Meaning (हिंदी अर्थ)
श्रीभगवान बोले: हे पार्थ! जब मनुष्य मन में उठने वाली सब कामनाओं को त्याग देता है और आत्मा से आत्मा में ही संतुष्ट रहता है, तब वह स्थितप्रज्ञ कहलाता है।
Commentary
The first and central mark: contentment from within. Ātmany evātmanā tuṣhṭaḥ — satisfied in the self, by the self. Such a person is not suppressing desires by force; they simply no longer need outside things to feel whole.
