65. In such a satisfied state of consciousness one does not suffer anymore and ones intelligence is an established fact.
Significance:
It is interesting to note many people in Kali yuga are not willing to quit their suffering. They refuse to have their mea culpa and engage in the solution, engage in yoga. With yoga we do not mean having some breathing exercises and having some gymnastics two or three times per week for two or three hours. We mean the as much as possible continuous engagement of reconnecting within the Supreme. The continuous state generally takes some time to reach, like a couple of months, a couple of years, or a couple of bodies.
66. One who is not connected with the Supreme in Krishna consciousness can have neither transcendental, actual intelligence, nor a peaceful mind. And how can there be any happiness without peace?
Significance:
Quite a few people make a show of their so called happiness. When asking them how they are doing they will react with: “Really GREAT dude!" and give you a big smile, while in actuality they are fearful, angry, disappointed. Or even think of committing suicide. Which is impossible since the true self is eternal.
67. As a strong wind sweeps away a boat on the water, even one of the roaming senses on which the mind focuses can carry away a man’s intelligence.
Significance:
Worhipping the idols in the mind is the activity of a materialist. For such a person Krishna, the Unlimitedly Playful and Naughty One, will remain fully out of reach.
68. Therefore, O dedicated Skull Cracker & Catapulter of Corpses, one whose senses are restrained from their objects is certainly of steady intelligence.
Significance:
The worldly sense perceptions of hearing, seeing, touching, smelling and tasting can only be restrained when ones perception takes place within the domain of actual knowledge. Otherwise these sense perceptions are in a toxic mental cocktail dominated by unlimited desires, disappointment, arrogance, superficiality, performance anxiety, duplicity etc. etc.. In that way the realm of eternity, the actual reality, remains an unknown world for the conditioned soul.
69. What is nighttime for all beings is the time of awakening for the self-controlled, and the time of awakening for all beings is night for the introspectve sage.
Significance:
These beings, known as “bhutani” in Sanskrit, are all things temporary. The individual spirit soul is eternal and is eternal integrated fragmental part of the Supreme Being, God. All things temporary are illusory and reside in the material mind. The introspective sage is not influenced by them. In Bhagavad-Gita 4.35 Krishna states: “Having obtained eternal knowledge a person does not fall into illusion again for he realises that all beings are but part of the Supreme, or in other words, that they are Mine. So as we render unto Caecar what is his, the enlightened souls leave Vishnu, the descendance of Krishna who supplies all nonsense, what is His. “Vishnu, you can keep your nonsense, I only want Krishna, the one with the one head, the two arms and the two legs”, is the conclusion of a lover of the Lord.
