Bhagavad Gita · Chapter 12: The Path of Devotion
Bhagavad Gita 12.4
संनियम्येन्द्रियग्रामं सर्वत्र समबुद्धयः ।
ते प्राप्नुवन्ति मामेव सर्वभूतहिते रताः ॥
saṃniyamyendriyagrāmaṃ sarvatra samabuddhayaḥ | te prāpnuvanti māmeva sarvabhūtahite ratāḥ ||
restraining all their senses, even-minded toward everything, and delighting in the good of all beings: they too reach me.
Modern context
Those who follow the formless path also reach the same goal. Both roads arrive. And the marks of the contemplative are worth noticing: they restrain their senses, they are even-minded, and they delight in the good of all beings. Even the most inward path ends in care for others. No genuine spiritual way turns its back on the world's welfare.
