Original Sanskrit · श्रीभगवान्
अहङ्कारं बलं दर्पं कामं क्रोधं परिग्रहम्
विमुच्य निर्ममः शान्तो ब्रह्मभूयाय कल्पते
॥ 18.53 ॥
ahaṅkāraṃ balaṃ darpaṃ kāmaṃ krodhaṃ parigraham
vimucya nirmamaḥ śānto brahmabhūyāya kalpate
Translation
"Giving up ego, force, arrogance, desire, anger and possessiveness, free from the sense of 'mine' and peaceful, a person becomes fit for the state of Brahman."
Interpretation
Shankaracharya. balaṃ sāmarthyaṃ kāmarāgasaṃyuktam — na itarat śarīrādisāmarthyaṃ — bala = force joined with desire and passion, not the body's natural strength.
Acharya Ramanuja. (18.51–18.53) brahmabhūyāya kalpate.
