- Verse 1
mana, jogi ho'te tomar basana joga-sastra adhyayana, niyama-yama-sadhana, pranayama, asana-racana
mana, jogi ho'te tomar basana joga-sastra adhyayana, niyama-yama-sadhana, pranayama, asana-racana
मन, जोगि होऽते तोमर बसन जोगसस्त्र अध्ययन, नियमयमसधन, प्रनयम, असनरचन
So, my dear mind, now you want to become a yogi. You read the various scriptures which describe different routines and techniques of sense control, breathing exercises and sitting postures.
- Verse 2
pratyahara, dhyana, dhrti samadhite ho'le brati, phala kiba hoibe bolo na deho-mana suska kori', rohibe kumbhaka dhori, brahmatmata koribe bhavana
pratyahara, dhyana, dhrti samadhite ho'le brati, phala kiba hoibe bolo na deho-mana suska kori', rohibe kumbhaka dhori, brahmatmata koribe bhavana
प्रत्यहर, ध्यन, ध्र्ति समधिते होऽले ब्रति, फल किब होइबे बोलो न देहोमन सुस्क कोरिऽ, रोहिबे कुम्भक धोरि, ब्रह्मत्मत कोरिबे भवन
For attaining ultimate samadhi you undertake many difficult practices like withdrawal of the senses, meditation and perseverance. Tell me, what wonderful result will be there in exchange for such endeavor? Minimizing your bodily and mental activities, and making the senses dull and dry, you live by holding the breath in suspension. Thus you practice the yoga process while contemplating on the soul's nature as Brahman.
- Verse 3
astadasa siddhi pa'be, paramartha bhule ha'be, aisvaryadi koribe kamana sthula jara parihari', suksmete pravesa kori', punaraya bhugibe jatana
astadasa siddhi pa'be, paramartha bhule ha'be, aisvaryadi koribe kamana sthula jara parihari', suksmete pravesa kori', punaraya bhugibe jatana
अस्तदस सिद्धि पऽबे, परमर्थ भुले हऽबे, ऐस्वर्यदि कोरिबे कमन स्थुल जर परिहरिऽ, सुक्स्मेते प्रवेस कोरिऽ, पुनरय भुगिबे जतन
You will get the eighteen mystic perfections and, mistaking them to be the greatest object of reality; you will entertain further wishes for still more wonderful opulences. Abandoning the plane of gross matter and entering into the subtle astral plane, you will simply undergo more troubles and tribulations all over again.
- Verse 4
atma nitya suddha-dhanahari-dasa akincana, joge ta'r ki phala ghatana koro' bhakti-jogasroy, na thakibe kon bhoy, sahaja amrta sambhavana
atma nitya suddha-dhanahari-dasa akincana, joge ta'r ki phala ghatana koro' bhakti-jogasroy, na thakibe kon bhoy, sahaja amrta sambhavana
अत्म नित्य सुद्धधनहरिदस अकिन्चन, जोगे तऽर कि फल घतन कोरोऽ भक्तिजोगस्रोय्, न थकिबे कोन भोय्, सहज अम्र्त सम्भवन
The eternally pure wealth of the spirit soul is simply to remain as the humble servant of Lord Hari. In comparison to this eternal wealth, what kind of spiritual result could possibly come from mundane so-called yoga practice? Just take refuge totally in the yoga of devotional service and you will become fearless, for then there is all likelihood of attaining you immortal nectar very easily.
- Verse 5
binoder e minati, chari' anya joga-gati, koro' radha-krsna aradhana
binoder e minati, chari' anya joga-gati, koro' radha-krsna aradhana
बिनोदेर ए मिनति, छरिऽ अन्य जोगगति, कोरोऽ रधक्र्स्न अरधन
Bhaktivinoda's humble entreaty is that you just perform the blissful worship of Radha-Krsna, my dear mind, and immediately reject all other goals of so-called yoga practice.
