TEXT 28
- युञ्जन्नेवं सदात्मानं योगी विगतकल्मषः ।
- सुखेन ब्रह्मसंस्पर्शमत्यन्तं सुखमश्नुते ॥२८॥
- yuñjann evaṁ sadātmānaṁ
- yogī vigata-kalmaṣaḥ
- sukhena brahma-saṁsparśam
- atyantaṁ sukham aśnute
yuñjanengaging in yoga practice — engaging in yoga practice; evamthus — thus; sadāalways — always; ātmānamthe self — the self; yogīone who is in touch with the Supreme Self — one who is in touch with the Supreme Self; vigatafreed from — freed from; kalmaṣaḥall material contamination — all material contamination; sukhenain transcendental happiness — in transcendental happiness; brahmabeing in constant touch with the Supreme-saṁsparśambeing in constant touch with the Supreme — being in constant touch with the Supreme; atyantamthe highest — the highest; sukhamhappiness — happiness; aśnuteattains — attains.
Thus the self-controlled yogī, constantly engaged in yoga practice, becomes free from all material contamination and achieves the highest stage of perfect happiness in transcendental loving service to the Lord.
Self-realization means knowing one's constitutional position in relationship to the Supreme. The individual soul is part and parcel of the Supreme, and his position is to render transcendental service to the Lord. This transcendental contact with the Supreme is called brahma-saṁsparśa.
