Shri Purohit Swami
वशीभूत अन्तःकरणवाला कर्मयोगी साधक रागद्वेषसे रहित अपने वशमें की हुई इन्द्रियोंके द्वारा विषयोंका सेवन करता हुआ अन्तःकरणकी निर्मलता को प्राप्त हो जाता है। निर्मलता प्राप्त होनेपर साधकके सम्पूर्ण दुःखोंका नाश हो जाता है और ऐसे शुद्ध चित्तवाले साधककी बुद्धि निःसन्देह बहुत जल्दी परमात्मामें स्थिर हो जाती है।
