प्रशान्तात्मा विगतभीर्ब्रह्मचारिव्रते स्थितः । मनः संयम्य मच्चित्तो युक्त आसीत मत्परः ॥ १४ ॥
praśhāntātmā vigata-bhīr brahmachāri-vrate sthitaḥ manaḥ sanyamya mach-chitto yukta āsīta mat-paraḥ
Translation
Serene and fearless, firm in the vow of brahmacharya, controlling the mind and thinking of me, the yogi should sit absorbed, devoted to me as the supreme goal.
Hindi Meaning (हिंदी अर्थ)
ब्रह्मचर्य व्रत में स्थित, भय-रहित और भली-भाँति शांत अंतःकरण वाला सावधान योगी मन को रोककर मुझमें चित्त लगाए और मेरे परायण होकर स्थित हो।
Commentary
The inner attitude matters as much as posture: calm, fearless, self-restrained, and — most importantly — with the mind given to God (mat-chittaḥ, mat-paraḥ). Meditation in the Gita is ultimately devotional.
