Chapter 5<\/a><\/p>\n << Chapter 5 verse 6<\/a><\/p>\n Simple<\/a><\/p>\n yoga-yukto vi\u015buddh\u0101tm\u0101 ‘The (karma-)yoga-united, pure-minded, whose mind and senses are under control, who looks on the \u0101tmas of all beings as his \u0101tma, is not tainted (by works), though he works.’<\/span><\/p>\n The performer of Karma-yoga is he who fulfils the sacred canons of \u015a\u0101stra, which are but Modes of Worship to the Supernal Spirit (Parama-purusha<\/em>[1. Parama-Purusha<\/em> = Synonym Purushottama<\/em> (‘The Super-excellent Person’, the 24th name of God, (vide also, P\u0101ta\u00f1jala Yoga-S\u016btra I.24, (which says purusha-vi\u015bes\u1e25<\/em>) – Purusha is the common term to denote a thinking<\/em> substance from an unthinking<\/em> substance. Utpurusha<\/em>=bound soul; uttara-purusha<\/em>=liberated soul, uttama-purusha<\/em>=the ever-free soul; Purushottama<\/em>=Soul Supreme=God.): Purusha<\/em> means etymologically He who grants abundance; “puru=bahu, sanoti=dad\u0101ti.<\/em>” Thus Parama-Purusha means the Supreme all-Giver.]).<\/span><\/p>\n By this, one becomes purified of mind (vi\u015buddh\u0101tma<\/em>). He is vijit\u0101tma<\/em> (having mind under control), because he is absorbed in the performance of the said Worship. Hence, he is jit-endriya<\/em> (who has governed the senses.)<\/span><\/p>\n He is sarva-bh\u016bt-\u0101tma-bh\u016bt-\u0101tma<\/em>, or he who is enabled \u2014by the way he performs work with the knowledge of the true nature of the performer thereof, \u0101tma,\u2014 to contemplate on the \u0101tmas abiding in all beings such as devas etc., as on his own \u0101tma; for the essential nature of \u0101tma(-principle), wherever it may abide, \u2014devas etc.,\u2014 is the same to the meditator of \u0101tma-nature.<\/span><\/p>\n The true nature of \u0101tma is not in the changeful matter which constitutes the bodies of devas etc. Bodies vary, but the informing \u0101tmas therein are one like the other, in their essential nature of being conscious entities, as viewed distinct from the (non-conscious) bodies (veiling them).<\/span><\/p>\n Gita tells us further on this fact that:<\/span><\/p>\n \u2018Faultless indeed is brahma<\/em> (\u0101tma), and equal\u2019. (v-19<\/a>).<\/span><\/p>\n A man of the above description is never infatuated with the erroneous notion of taking what is non-\u0101tma (non-spirit or, material substance) for \u0101tma (soul or spiritual essence), albeit he works.<\/span><\/p>\n He works, but (his spiritual notions are of such a nature that) his works do not bind him.<\/span><\/p>\n Ere long, therefore, he realizes \u0101tma.<\/span><\/p>\n As Karma-yoga has been declared to be easy of performance, and fructifying soon, what is required to enable one to so perform it, is now stated:\u2014<\/span><\/p>\n >> Chapter 5 verse 8 and 9<\/a><\/p>\n archived in https:\/\/githa.koyil.org<\/a><\/p>\n pramEyam (goal) \u2013 http:\/\/koyil.org<\/a> SrI:\u00a0 SrImathE SatakOpAya nama:\u00a0 SrImathE rAmAnujAya nama:\u00a0 SrImath varavaramunayE nama: Chapter 5 << Chapter 5 verse 6 Simple yoga-yukto vi\u015buddh\u0101tm\u0101 vijit\u0101tm\u0101 jitendriya\u1e25 sarva-bh\u016bt\u0101tma-bh\u016bt\u0101tm\u0101 kurvann api na lipyate ‘The (karma-)yoga-united, pure-minded, whose mind and senses are under control, who looks on the \u0101tmas of all beings as his \u0101tma, is not tainted (by works), though he … Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[15,24],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2367","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-chapter-5","category-original"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/githa.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2367","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/githa.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/githa.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/githa.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/githa.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2367"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/githa.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2367\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/githa.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2367"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/githa.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2367"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/githa.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2367"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
