| प्रथमोध्यायः,-Shadkarma, (Ch.-1, V.-4) |
नास्ति मायासमः पाशो नास्ति योगत्परं बलम्। नास्तिज्ञानत्परो बन्धुर्नाहङ्कारत् परो रिपुः ॥४॥ |
nāsti māyāsamaḥ pāśo nāsti yogatparaṃ balam। nāstijñānatparo bandhurnāhaṅkārat paro ripuḥ ॥4॥ |
There are no fetters like those of Illusion (MayA), no strength like that which comes from discipline (Yoga), there is no friend higher than knowledge (Jnana) and no greater enemy than Egoism (Ahankara). |
