Srimad Bhagavat Gita commentary chapter 6 verse 21


Chapter 6 verse 21

“When, the yogi feels that infinite Bliss, which can be grasped by the pure intellect and which transcends the senses-wherein established he never moves from the Reality”

Lord points to the infinite bliss as a state which transcends body, mind, intellect and the senses. Once the person gets to this state, there is no returning back from jivan mukthi. The person is said to have attained nirvikalpa Samadhi. We may however get to more temporary states of bliss such as sleep state or even momentary states of thoughtlessness which are not to be confused for this eternal state of bliss. The bliss state cannot be realized by the body, mind, intellect or senses but only understood by that Self itself. Anything which can be described is NOT that state!
