श्रीभगवानुवाच ।
वृत्तयो यदि बोधेन संशान्ता हृदये स्फुटम् ।
तच्चित्तं शान्तमेवान्तर्विद्धि सत्त्वमुपागतम् ॥ २ ॥

śrībhagavānuvāca |
vṛttayo yadi bodhena saṃśāntā hṛdaye sphuṭam |
taccittaṃ śāntamevāntarviddhi sattvamupāgatam || 2 ||

The Lord replied: —when you find the feelings and faculties of your heart and mind, to be fully pacified by means of your knowledge; then understand your soul to have attained its tranquillity, and the property of goodness or purity of its nature.
