Verse 5.19

Verse 5.19: “Right here is the creation conquered by those whose mind is steadied in equipoise; for, (such) faultless (and) even (temper) is Brahman (itself), so that they become steadied in Brahman. (96)

Commentary called Jnaneshwari by Jnaneshwar:

Therefore know it that “I am that sole one Brahman without a second, which ever abides everywhere, steadied in equipoise” and that this secret truth is the spring of the “even-eyed” vision. For he alone lives the life of detachment and freedom from desires without losing contact with the objects of the senses, and without in any way dropping the functions of the senses. He acts like other common persons, but has dropped all delusions of worldly things arising out of ignorance; abides in the body-form but remains aloof from worldly affairs, just as the spirit haunts a tree but is not visible to an observer, or like the water rolling over other water on account of a gust of wind to which others however give the name of waves; who although known under different names and forms is none else but the Supreme Brahman, and whose mind abides “steadied in equipoise”—such a one, has attained vision, steady and whole, and has also his special marks, which Oh Arjuna, I shall tell you thus in brief.
