हे पार्थ ! दुष्ट बुद्धिवाला मनुष्य जिस धृतिके द्वारा निद्रा, भय, चिन्ता, दुःख और घमण्डको भी नहीं छोड़ता, वह धृति तामसी है। अवधान एक सीमित क्षमता है: जो विषय बार-बार मन में आता है, वही अगली क्रिया की दिशा बनता है। यह पंक्ति उसी मानसिक चयन को अपना विषय बनाती है।
A modern parallel offered for reflection. It is not part of the scripture, and it has not been checked against the original sources it may allude to.
