Translation

Jooga tähendab kõikidest meelelistest tegevustest lahti ütlemist. Sulgedes kõik meelte uksed ning fikseerides mõistuse südamele ja eluõhu pealaele, kinnistab inimene end joogas.

The yogic situation is that of detachment from all sensual engagements. Closing all the doors of the senses and fixing the mind on the heart and the life air at the top of the head, one establishes himself in yoga.

Purport

Et praktiseerida joogat siin soovitatud viisil, peab joogi sulgema esmalt kõik meelenaudingute juurde viivad uksed. Sellist praktikat nimetatakse pratyāhāraks ehk meelte lahutamiseks meelte ihaldusobjektidest. Teadmiste hankimiseks mõeldud meeleorganid (silmad, kõrvad, nina, keel ja kompimismeel) tuleb hoida täielikult enese kontrolli all, laskmata neil tegutseda enese rahuldamiseks. Sel moel keskendatakse mõistus Ülihingele südames ning elujõud tõstetakse pealaele. Seda protsessi kirjeldatakse üksikasjalikult kuuendas peatükis. Kuid nagu eespool mainitud, pole selle meetodi järgimine käesoleval ajastul praktiline. Parim meetod on Kṛṣṇa teadvus. Kui inimene suudab fikseerida oma mõistuse Kṛṣṇale, Teda pühendunult teenides, siis suudab ta väga lihtsalt püsida häirimatus transtsendentaalses transi ehk samādhi seisundis.

To practice yoga as suggested here, one first has to close the doors of all sense enjoyment. This practice is called pratyāhāra, or withdrawing the senses from the sense objects. The sense organs for acquiring knowledge – the eyes, ears, nose, tongue and touch – should be fully controlled and should not be allowed to engage in self-gratification. In this way the mind focuses on the Supersoul in the heart, and the life force is raised to the top of the head. In the Sixth Chapter this process is described in detail. But as mentioned before, this practice is not practical in this age. The best process is Kṛṣṇa consciousness. If one is always able to fix his mind on Kṛṣṇa in devotional service, it is very easy for him to remain in an undisturbed transcendental trance, or in samādhi.
