शक्नोतीहैव यः सोढुं प्राक्शरीरविमोक्षणात् । कामक्रोधोद्भवं वेगं स युक्तः स सुखी नरः ॥ २३ ॥
śhaknotīhaiva yaḥ soḍhuṁ prāk śharīra-vimokṣhaṇāt kāma-krodhodbhavaṁ vegaṁ sa yuktaḥ sa sukhī naraḥ
Translation
One who is able, here in this life before the body is released, to withstand the surge born of desire and anger, is a yogi; that person is happy.
Hindi Meaning (हिंदी अर्थ)
जो मनुष्य शरीर छूटने से पहले ही इस जीवन में काम और क्रोध से उत्पन्न होने वाले वेग को सहन करने में समर्थ हो जाता है, वही योगी है और वही सुखी है।
Commentary
Vegam — the surge or rush. Desire and anger arrive like a flood. The yogi is not someone who never feels them, but someone who can withstand the surge without being swept away. That capacity, Krishna says, is happiness.
