#256 Bhagavad-gita Chapter 6,Śloka 36 -Kartikeya das

_______________
असंयतात्मना योगो दुष्प्राप इति मे मति: ।
वश्यात्मना तु यतता शक्योऽवाप्‍तुमुपायत: ॥ ३६ ॥

asaṁyatātmanā yogo
duṣprāpa iti me matiḥ
vaśyātmanā tu yatatā
śakyo ’vāptum upāyataḥ

For one whose mind is unbridled, self-realization is difficult work. But he whose mind is controlled and who strives by appropriate means is assured of success. That is My opinion.

Hare Krishna prabhuji
Dandwat pranam
Thankyou prabhuji for the series, you explain it very nicely

[karthikshenoy]

Hare Krishna prabhuji,
One must control the mind by engaging it constantly in the transcendental loving service of the Lord.

[poornimatrehan]

Hare Krishna. Such beautiful words in the purport by dear Srila Prabhupada, the supreme personality of godhead declares that one who doesn't accept the proper treatment to detach the mind from material engagement can hardly achieve success in self realization.
Practicing yoga without mind control is waste of time. 🙏Hare krishna.
Analogy :trying to put fire while putting water

[mrudularavindran]

Hare Krishna
Practicing yoga while engaging mind in material enjoyment is like igniting fire while pouring water on it. No yoga without devotional service can achieve the desired result.
