Page:Bhagavad Gita - Annie Besant 4th edition.djvu/49

 passion, fear and anger, is called a sage of stable mind.

He who on every side is without attachments, whatever hap of fair and foul, who neither likes nor dislikes, of such a one the understanding is well poised.

When, again, as a tortoise draws in on all sides its limbs, he withdraws his senses from the objects of sense, then is his understanding well poised.
