Chapter 18, Verse 54

Sanskrit (Devanāgarī)
ब्रह्मभूतः प्रसन्नात्मा न शोचति न काङ्क्षति
समः सर्वेषु भूतेषु मद्भक्तिं लभते पराम्
Transliteration (IAST)
brahmabhūtaḥ prasannātmā na śocati na kāṅkṣati .samaḥ sarveṣu bhūteṣu madbhaktiṃ labhate parām
Hindi Translation
फिर वह सच्चिदानन्दब्रह्म में एकीभाव से स्थित, प्रसन्न मनवाला योगी न तो किसी के लिये शोक करता है और न किसी के लिये आकांक्षा करता है। वह सब भूतों में समान भाव वाला हो जाता है और मुझमें अनन्य भक्ति प्राप्त करता है।
English Translation
Endowed with an untarnished intellect and partaking of a light, Sattvika and regulated diet, living in a lonely and undefiled place having rejected sound and other objects of sense, having controlled the mind, speech and body by restraining the mind and senses through firmness of a Sattvika type, taking a resolute stand on dispassion, after having completely got rid of attraction and aversion and remaining ever devoted to the Yoga of meditation having given up egotism, violence, arrogance, lust, anger and luxuries, devoid of the feeling of meum and tranquil of hear,—such a man becomes qualified for oneness with Brahma, who is Truth Consciousness and Bliss.
