Chapter 2 · Verse 72
Sankhya Yoga
सांख्ययोग
In plain words
You should strive to rest in the divine state of ultimate reality, which frees you from all delusion. By anchoring yourself in this supreme consciousness, even at the moment of death, you transcend the cycle of karma, the law of cause and effect. Living in this sacred awareness ensures that you merge eternally with the infinite spirit.
Translation
2.72 This is the Brahmi-state, O Arjuna. None attaining to this is deluded. By abiding in this state even at the hour of death, one wins the self.
Meaning
The state described in the previous verse -- to renounce everything and to live in Brahman -- is the Brahmic state or the state of Brahman. If one attains to this state one is never deluded. He attains Moksha if he stays in that state even at the hour of his death. It is needless to say that he who gets establised in Brahman throughout his life attains to the state of Brahman or,BrahmaNirvana (Cf. VIII.5 6). Maharshi Vidyaranya says in his Panchadasi that Antakala here means the moment at which Avidya or mutual superimposition of the Self and the notSelf ends. Thus in the Upanishads of the glorious Bhagavad Gita the science of the Eternal the scripture of Yoga the dialogue between Sri Krishna and Arjuna ends the second discourse entitledThe Sankhya Yoga.,
