Explication

Krishna describes the one who has conquered himself and is at peace. For such a person, the highest self (paramātman) remains collected through cold and heat, pleasure and pain, honour and insult. Some traditions read paramātman here as the supreme Self dwelling within; others read the phrase as saying that the person's own self is supremely composed. Both readings point to the same experience: a centre that is not disturbed by the pairs of opposites. The verse extends the earlier teaching on evenness of mind into the practice of meditation.
