Bhagavad Gita 2.44
भोगैश्वर्यप्रसक्तानां तयापहृतचेतसाम्।व्यवसायात्मिका बुद्धिः समाधौ न विधीयते॥
bhogaiśvaryaprasaktānāṃ tayāpahṛtacetasām |vyavasāyātmikā buddhiḥ samādhau na vidhīyate ||
For those who are attached to pleasure and power, whose minds are drawn away by such teachings, their determinate reason is not formed which is steadily bent on meditation and Samadhi (superconscious state).
While their minds are absorbed with thoughts of power and personal enjoyment, they cannot focus their discrimination on one point.
Our plain-language meaning of this verse is waiting for scholar review.
