TEXT 27
- प्रशान्तमनसं ह्येनं योगिनं सुखमुत्तमम् ।
- उपैति शान्तरजसं ब्रह्मभूतमकल्मषम् ॥२७॥
- praśānta-manasaṁ hy enaṁ
- yoginaṁ sukham uttamam
- upaiti śānta-rajasaṁ
- brahma-bhūtam akalmaṣam
praśāntapeaceful, fixed on the lotus feet of Kṛṣṇa — peaceful, fixed on the lotus feet of Kṛṣṇa; manasamwhose mind — whose mind; hicertainly — certainly; enamthis — this; yoginamyogī — yogī; sukhamhappiness — happiness; uttamamthe highest — the highest; upaitiattains — attains; śāntahis passion pacified-rajasamhis passion pacified — his passion pacified; brahmaliberation by identification with the Absolute-bhūtamliberation by identification with the Absolute — liberation by identification with the Absolute; akalmaṣamfreed from all past sinful reactions — freed from all past sinful reactions.
The yogī whose mind is fixed on Me verily attains the highest perfection of transcendental happiness. He is beyond the mode of passion, he realizes his qualitative identity with the Supreme, and thus he is freed from all reactions to past deeds.
Brahma-bhūta is the state of being free from material contamination and situated in the transcendental service of the Lord. Mad-bhaktiṁ labhate parām (BG 18.54, Available in the library). One cannot remain in the quality of Brahman, the Absolute, until one's mind is fixed on the lotus feet of the Lord. Sa vai manaḥ kṛṣṇa-pādāravindayoḥ (SB 9.4.18, Not yet available in the library. Try the live source.). To be always engaged in the transcendental loving service of the Lord, or to remain in Kṛṣṇa consciousness, is to be factually liberated from the mode of passion and all material contamination.
