How Devotion and Buddhi Yoga bestow the same contentment to the mind

The effect of unflinching devotion is that the mind becomes calm, it is not shaken, there is no desire, there is no hatred. It will become an embodiment of serenity, virtue, sublimity. This is what Krishna means by samatva also. When one becomes equal towards sukha and duhkha, the only two experiences which the world and the world objects, interactions with them bring about, then what is there further to be had? Thus, both these approaches end in the placidity and unaffectedness of mind, Swamiji explains.

Slokas chanted in the track:

नास्था धर्मे न वसुनिचये नैव कामोपभोगे यद्भव्यं तद्भवतु भगवन् पूर्वकर्मानुरूपम् ।
ह्येतत् प्रार्थ्यं मम बहुमतं जन्मजन्मान्तरेऽपि त्वत्पादाम्भोरुहयुगगता निश्चला भक्तिरस्तु ॥
(Mukundamala 7)
