Bhagavad Gita · Chapter 6: The Path of Meditation

Bhagavad Gita 6.22

यं लब्ध्वा चापरं लाभं मन्यते नाधिकं ततः । यस्मिन्स्थितो न दुःखेन गुरुणापि विचाल्यते ॥

yaṃ labdhvā cāparaṃ lābhaṃ manyate nādhikaṃ tataḥ | yasminsthito na duḥkhena guruṇāpi vicālyate ||

having gained which, one thinks there is no greater gain, and established in which, one is not shaken even by heavy sorrow;

Modern context

Two tests show that this is the real thing. Having it, one does not think any other gain is greater. And resting in it, one is not shaken even by heavy sorrow. The second test is honest. It does not say that sorrow stops coming. Loss, grief and pain still arrive. But they arrive at someone who is standing on ground they cannot reach, and so the person is moved and not overthrown.
