Sri Ramanuja

6.27 Supreme happiness, which is of the nature of experience of the self in its essential nature comes to this Yogin whose ‘mind is at peace,’ i.e., whose mind does not swerve from the self, whose mind abides in the self; whose impurities are thery completely burnt away; whose Rajas is thery ‘wholly annulled,’ i.e., in whom the ality of Rajas is destroyed; and who has thus become the Brahman, i.e., who remains steady in his essential nature as the Atman. ‘Hi’ (for) is added to indicate reason. The meaning is this: ‘On account of the nature of the self which has the form of supreme bliss.’

Commentaries

Swami Sivananda

6.27 प्रशान्तमनसम् one of peaceful mind? हि verily? एनम् this? योगिनम् Yogi? सुखम् bliss? उत्तमम् supreme? उपैति comes? शान्तरजसम् one whose passion is ieted? ब्रह्मभूतम् one who has become Brahman? अकल्मषम् one who is free from sin.Commentary In this verse and in the next also the Lord describes the benefits of Yoga.Supreme (eternal? unalloyed and uninterrupted) bliss comes to the Yogi whose mind is perfectly serene? who has calmed his passionate nature? who has destroyed all sorts of attachments? who has attained knowledge of the Self and thus become a Jivanmukta or one who is liberated while living? who feels that all is Brahman only? and who is taintless? i.e.? who is not affected by Dharma or Adharma (good or evil).
