Bhagavad Gita 2.55
श्री भगवानुवाच · śrī bhagavānuvāca
प्रजहाति यदा कामान् सर्वान् पार्थ मनोगतान्।आत्मन्येवात्मना तुष्टः स्थितप्रज्ञस्तदोच्यते॥
prajahāti yadā kāmān sarvān pārtha manogatān |ātmanyevātmanā tuṣṭaḥ sthitaprajñastadocyate ||
The Blessed Lord said, "When a man completely casts off, O Arjuna, all the desires of the mind and is satisfied in the Self by the Self, then he is said to be one of steady wisdom."
Lord Shri Krishna replied: When a person has given up the desires of their heart and is content with the Self alone, they have surely reached the highest state.
Our plain-language meaning of this verse is waiting for scholar review.
