Verse 4.10

वीतरागभयक्रोधा मन्मया मामुपाश्रिताः। बहवो ज्ञानतपसा पूता मद्भावमागताः।।4.10।।

vīta-rāga-bhaya-krodhā man-mayā mām upāśhritāḥ bahavo jñāna-tapasā pūtā mad-bhāvam āgatāḥ

Meaning

No cap, ditch the attachments, fear, and anger. Be all about me, fam. Trust me, I got you. Get purified by the fire of knowledge, and you'll achieve enlightenment, no doubt.

Commentary

Okay, so like, when you're all about self-knowledge, you're not gonna be tripping over material stuff. When you realize you're this indestructible, eternal being, and that change is just a body thing, fear's not even a vibe. No desires, no selfishness, just pure self everywhere? Anger's not even on the menu. When you're all in with the Absolute, you're totally devoted. You're like, *living* the Absolute. Jnanatapas? That's the fire of wisdom, burning away all the bad juju—the cravings, the regrets, the sins, the whole shebang. It's a total cleanse.
