“Arjuna! Those who are free of rāga and dveṣa, fear and anger; those absorbed in thought of Me, in My name and form alone; those who know no refuge but Me; those made pure by Ātmajñāna; those who know My divine births and karmas and seek Me alone with Satya, Dharma and Prema: they attain Me alone. This is true three times over. Give up your doubt. Men who are ajñānis constantly make their antaḥkaraṇas impure by dwelling on sense objects. Such people come to think only of sense objects, sound and the rest; as soon as the vāsanās of those objects touch them, desires arise to get them. When the desires so wished for are not fulfilled, or when the objects come into their hands and slip away again, they fall prey to unrest and are seized by fear and delusion. Fear devours all a man's powers. In one who is fearful, anger runs high. Anger and fear: these two are the terrible obstacles to attaining God. Only when these three, desire, anger and fear, are wholly removed from the antaḥkaraṇa do they remain never to be parted from God. Brother-in-law! Consider these matters well, and inquire into them. As one who has Viveka, put your faith in My words,” the Lord said.
