Verse 2.64

रागद्वेषवियुक्तैस्तु विषयानिन्द्रियैश्चरन्। आत्मवश्यैर्विधेयात्मा प्रसादमधिगच्छति।।2.64।।

rāga-dveṣha-viyuktais tu viṣhayān indriyaiśh charan ātma-vaśhyair-vidheyātmā prasādam adhigachchhati

Meaning

But like, a person who's got their act together, who's moving through life, keeping it low-key with their senses, not getting too attached or stressed – that person is straight-up chill.

Commentary

Okay, so like, our minds and senses are wired to be, like, totally into some things and totally repulsed by others, right? It's just how it is. But a disciplined person? They're vibing in the world, using their senses, but they're not, like, *obsessed* with anything or totally freaked out by anything. They've got their stuff together. They're chill. They only go for what they actually need to keep their body going, no cap. And they def don't touch anything that's, like, a no-no according to the rules. This verse is Krishna's answer to Arjuna's question about how a chill sage handles things.
