Verse 4.10

Verse 4.10: “Many are they who, getting rid of passion, fear and anger, seek refuge in Me; become attuned with Me; and purified by the penance (in the form) of (the above) knowledge, they attain oneness (of essence) with Me. (60)

Commentary called Jnaneshwari by Jnaneshwar:

Those that are never worried over the past and future events, and those that become free from desires, and never succumb to rage; also those that are free from attachment to sense-objects and have their minds enriched with the blissful vision of my essence, and who live only by service to God and thus enjoy the bliss of the knowledge of the Supreme Self; those that are the treasure house of the splendour born of religious austerities and have become the home of true knowledge of the Supreme Self—making holy waters more holy—such ones easily merge with the essence of My divine being and remain in me, there being nothing like any difference between us. Just tell me what is the propriety of going in search of gold when brass is rid of its dross and rust (kalaka). In that way those that have passed through the fiery test of Yoga penance, and have their life purified through their religious austerities, and true knowledge, have doubtless merged in My form of the Self.
