न हि ज्ञानेन सदृशं पवित्रमिह विद्यते
तत् स्वयं योगसंसिद्धः कालेनाऽऽत्मनि विन्दति
॥ 4.38 ॥
na hi jñānena sadṛśaṃ pavitramiha vidyate
tat svayaṃ yogasaṃsiddhaḥ kālenā''tmani vindati
Anuvaad
"Is sansaar mein gyaan ke samaan pavitra karne wala kuchh bhi nahin hai. Yoga mein paripakv hua vyakti samay aane par use svayam apne bheetar paata hai."
Bhaavaarth
Do baatein. (1) Na hi jñānena sadṛśaṃ pavitram — gyaan jaisa pavitra kuchh nahin; (2) svayaṃ … kālena ātmani vindati — yoga se siddh vyakti samay par use apne bheetar paata hai.
Shankaracharya: pavitraṃ pāvanaṃ śuddhi-karam; yogena karma-yogena samādhi-yogena ca saṃsiddhaḥ saṃskṛtaḥ yogyatām āpannaḥ san mumukṣuḥ kālena mahatā ātmani vindati — karma-yoga aur samaadhi-yoga se sanskaarit, yogya hua mumukshu, lambe samay mein use apni aatma mein paata hai.
Aacharya Ramanuja: ātma-jñānena sadṛśaṃ pavitraṃ śuddhi-karam iha jagati vastv-antaraṃ na vidyate, tasmād ātma-jñānaṃ sarvaṃ pāpaṃ nāśayati — aatma-gyaan jaisa shuddh karne wala doosra kuchh nahin, isliye yeh sab paap nasht karta hai. Tat tathā-vidhaṃ jñānaṃ yathopadeśam ahar ahar anuṣṭhīyamānaṃ jñānākāra-karma-yogena saṃsiddhaḥ kālena svātmani svayam eva labhate — upadesh ke anusaar roz kiye ja rahe, gyaan-roop karma-yoga se siddh hokar, samay par apne bheetar svayam paata hai.
