ŚaṅkarācāryaGītā-bhāṣya
Advaita Vedānta· Classical
Machine translation · draft

For one whose food and conduct are measured, food being what is eaten and conduct the walking of the feet, and both of fixed amount; for one whose effort in works is measured; for one whose sleeping and waking are at fixed times: for such a yogin, of measured food and conduct, of measured effort in works, of measured sleeping and waking, yoga comes about, the yoga that destroys pain, that destroys all the pain of transmigration. Now it is told when one becomes yoked.
