Verse 21

The Yoga of Renunciation

Such a liberated person is not attracted to material sense pleasure but is always in trance, enjoying the pleasure within. In this way the self-realized person enjoys unlimited happiness, for he concentrates on the Supreme.

Context & Meaning

Not drawn to outer pleasures of the senses, the realized person finds endless joy within — in the Atman itself. This inner happiness is inexhaustible, unlike the fleeting satisfaction of sense-objects.
