यं संन्यासमिति प्राहुर्योगं तं विद्धि पाण्डव |
न ह्यसंन्यस्तसङ्कल्पो योगी भवति कश्चन
॥ ६-२ ॥
yaṃ sannyāsamiti prāhur yogaṃ taṃ
viddhi pāṇḍava na hyasannyastasaṅkalpo
yogī bhavati kaścana
Pāṇḍava, what is called renunciation, or sannyāsa, you must know to be the same as yoga, or uniting oneself with the Supreme, for never can anyone become a yogī, until he renounces the desire for self-gratification [saṅkalpa]
POWERFUL COGNITION
Be complete and renounce your thoughts
