न हि ज्ञानेन सदृशं पवित्रमिह विद्यते ।
तत्स्वयं योगसंसिद्धः कालेनात्मनि विन्दति ॥
तत्स्वयं योगसंसिद्धः कालेनात्मनि विन्दति ॥
हिन्दी अनुवाद
इस मनुष्यलोकमें ज्ञानके समान पवित्र करनेवाला निःसन्देह दूसरा कोई साधन नहीं है । जिसका योग भलीभाँति सिद्ध हो गया है, वह कर्मयोगी उस तत्त्वज्ञानको अवश्य ही स्वयं अपनेआपमें पा लेता है ॥
English
No purifier compares to knowledge in this world. The one perfected in yoga finds that knowledge within the self in time.
श्लोक का अर्थ
Clear understanding is the highest purifier. A person who has matured through yoga eventually discovers that truth within themselves.
संदर्भ और टिप्पणी
On Kurukshetra, Arjuna is still frozen while Krishna keeps turning action into understanding. After saying knowledge burns karma, Krishna adds that no purifier equals knowledge, and that a person perfected through yoga will eventually realize it within.
आज के संदर्भ में

There is relief in knowing the deepest clarity is not borrowed from outside; it can ripen inside you.
