Chapter 6: Dhyān Yog(6.2)

Chapter 6: Dhyān Yog
yaṁ sannyāsam iti prāhur yogaṁ taṁ viddhi pāṇḍava
na hyasannyasta-saṅkalpo yogī bhavati kaśhchana||2||

Meaning : What people call renunciation (sannyāsa),
understand that to be the same as yoga (spiritual discipline), O Arjuna.
For no one becomes a true yogi who has not renounced selfish desires and personal intentions (saṅkalpa). People often think renunciation means giving up possessions or withdrawing from the world. But Krishna says: Renunciation and Yoga are the same path when understood rightly. It is not about escaping life, but about releasing the ego’s grip — acting without craving, living without clinging. Only when the mind is free from personal agendas can one walk the true path of union and inner peace.
