Bhaj Govindam  This is an important verse for all of us. Many a times I have heard people mentioning the names of many realised souls, and use them as an example to justify their own indulgence in life - Saying that they also indulge. On the other hand, the other extreme is also true, where people quote the example of fakirs who just wander around and feel that by aping them, they will also get realisation. The irony is, they don't realise that what they see is the final out come, the end and not the means. They fail to see that, ones one experiences God, no matter what the situation outside, the inner self dwells in the divine bliss. He could be sitting in Yoga or Indulging in Bhog, he could be alone or in a crowd, he remains established in his true Sat Chit Anand Swaroop. For, this realised one sees bhog in yog and yog in bhog. In the crowd or alone he is always in ekanth.  Verse 19 योगरतो वाभोगरतोवा,  सङ्गरतो वा सङ्गवीहिनः। यस्य ब्रह्मणि रमते चित्तं,  नन्दति नन्दति नन्दत्येव॥ कोई योग में लगा हो या भोग में,  संग में आसक्त हो या निसंग हो,  पर जिसका मन ब्रह्म में लगा है वो ही आनंद करता है,  आनंद ही करता है॥

Yogarato Va Bhogarato Va Sangarato Va Sangavihinah Yasya Brahmani Ramate Cittam Nandati Nandati Nandatyeva
