Adhyaay 2साङ्ख्ययोगःSankhya Yoga

Arjuna ki sharan (2.1–2.10). Sanjaya batate hain ki karuna se bhare, aansuon wali aankhon wale Arjuna se Krishna bolte hain (2.1). Krishna ke pehle shabd kathor lagte hain — yeh kaśmala (mail) aur hṛdaya-daurbalya (dil ki kamzori) hai; utho (2.2–2.3). Arjuna phir Bhishma aur Drona ki baat karte hain — poojya gurujanon ko maar kar bhikh khaana behtar (2.4–2.5); unhe yeh bhi nahin pata ki jeetna behtar hai ya haarna (2.6). Phir adhyay ka mod: kārpaṇya-doṣopahata-svabhāvaḥ … śiṣyas te 'haṃ śādhi māṃ tvāṃ prapannam — "main aapka shishya hoon, sharan mein aaya hoon, mujhe sikhaaiye" (2.7). Woh kehte hain ki prithvi ka raajya bhi yeh shok nahin mitaayega (2.8), aur "main nahin ladunga" kehkar chup ho jaate hain (2.9). Krishna, maano muskuraate hue, dono senaon ke beech bolna shuru karte hain (2.10).

Aatma ka gyaan — saankhya (2.11–2.30). "Tum un par shok kar rahe ho jo shok ke yogya nahin, aur buddhi ki baatein karte ho" (2.11). Na kabhi main nahin tha, na tum, na ye raja (2.12). Jaise shareer mein bachpan, jawaani, budhaapa — waise hi doosra shareer (2.13). Indriya-sparsh se sukh-dukh aate-jaate hain — unhe saho (2.14–2.15). Asat ka bhaav nahin, sat ka abhaav nahin (2.16); jo sab mein vyaapt hai woh avinaashi hai (2.17); shareer naashvaan, dehi nitya (2.18). Yeh na maarta hai, na maara jaata hai (2.19); na janmta hai, na marta (2.20–2.21). Jaise purane kapde chhod kar naye (2.22). Shastra kaat nahin sakte, aag jala nahin sakti (2.23–2.25). Aur agar use janmne-marne wala bhi maano, tab bhi shok uchit nahin (2.26–2.28). Koi ise aashcharya ki tarah dekhta hai (2.29); dehi sabke shareer mein avadhya hai (2.30).

Svadharma ka tark (2.31–2.38). Apne dharma ki drishti se bhi kampit hona uchit nahin; dharma-yuddh kshatriya ke liye shreshth (2.31–2.32). Na ladna dharma aur keerti ki haani, aur apyash maran se bhi bura (2.33–2.36). Maare gaye to svarg, jeete to prithvi (2.37). Sukh-dukh, laabh-haani, jay-paraajay ko samaan maan kar yuddh karo (2.38).

Buddhi-yoga — karma-yoga (2.39–2.53). Ab tak saankhya ki buddhi; ab yoga ki (2.39). Is raaste mein koi prayaas vyarth nahin, thoda bhi bada bhay mitaata hai (2.40). Nishchay-yukt buddhi ek hai, anishchit buddhi ki anek shaakhaayein (2.41). Phal ki chamak wale vachanon mein phanse logon ki buddhi samaadhi mein nahin tikti (2.42–2.44); trigun se paar ho (2.45); gyaani ke liye Veda ka prayojan (2.46). Karmaṇy evādhikāras te — adhikaar karm mein, phal mein kabhi nahin (2.47). Yoga mein sthit hokar karm karo — samatvaṃ yoga ucyate (2.48). Buddhi ki sharan lo (2.49); yogaḥ karmasu kauśalam (2.50). Aise gyaani janm-bandhan se mukt hote hain (2.51); moh ki dal-dal paar hone par vairagya (2.52), aur buddhi achal hone par yoga (2.53).

Sthita-prajña (2.54–2.72). Arjuna poochhte hain — sthir buddhi wale ki pehchaan, bolna, baithna, chalna (2.54). Krishna: jo man ki sab kaamnaayein chhod kar aatma mein santusht hai (2.55); dukh mein anudvign, sukh mein nihsprih, raag-bhay-krodh se mukt (2.56); shubh-ashubh mein na harsh na dvesh (2.57); kachhue ki tarah indriyaan samete (2.58). Vishay hat-te hain, ras param ko dekh kar jaata hai (2.59); indriyaan vidvaan ko bhi kheench leti hain (2.60); isliye unhe vash mein karke mat-paraḥ ho (2.61). Vishay-chintan → sang → kaam → krodh → sammoh → smriti-bhransh → buddhi-naash → pranaash (2.62–2.63). Raag-dvesh se mukt indriyon se vicharne wala prasaad paata hai (2.64), jisme dukh mitte aur buddhi tikti hai (2.65); ayukt ko na buddhi, na shaanti, na sukh (2.66); bhatakta man pragya ko waise le jaata hai jaise hawa naav ko (2.67); isliye indriya-nigrah (2.68). Jo sab ki raat hai usme sanyami jaagta hai (2.69); samudra ki tarah kaamnaayein jisme sama jaati hain, woh shaanti paata hai (2.70); nihsprih, nirmam, nirahankaar (2.71). Yahi brāhmī sthiti hai — ise paakar moh nahin hota (2.72).

Adhyay moh (2.1, 2.7) se shuru hokar "na vimuhyati" (2.72) par samaapt hota hai.
