Purification

Na hi jnanena sadrisham pavitram iha vidyate, tat svayam yoga-samsiddhah kalenatmani vindati

In this world, there is nothing so sublime and pure as transcendental knowledge. Such knowledge is the mature fruit of all mysticism. One who has become accomplished in yoga finds it within their own self in due course of time.

Vita-raga-bhaya-krodha man-maya mam upashritah, bahavo jnana-tapasa puta mad-bhavam agatah

Freed from attachment, fear, and anger, fully absorbed in Me and taking refuge in Me, many persons in the past became purified by knowledge and austerity and attained My divine love.

Yajna-dana-tapah-karma na tyajyam karyam eva tat, yajno danam tapash chaiva pavanani manishinam

Acts of sacrifice, charity, and austerity should not be abandoned, but should indeed be performed, for sacrifice, charity, and austerity are purifying for the wise.
