श्रीमद्भगवद्गीता 2.67

इन्द्रियाणां हि चरतां यन्मनोऽनुविधीयते।तदस्य हरति प्रज्ञां वायुर्नावमिवाम्भसि॥

indriyāṇāṃ hi caratāṃ yanmano'nuvidhīyate |tadasya harati prajñāṃ vāyurnāvamivāmbhasi ||

For the mind, which follows in the wake of the wandering senses, carries away his discrimination, as the wind carries away a boat on the waters.

As a ship at sea is tossed by the tempest, so the reason is carried away by the mind when preyed upon by straying senses.

इस श्लोक का हमारा सरल अर्थ विद्वत् समीक्षा की प्रतीक्षा में है।
