Penjelasan

Krishna speaks of a different kind of happiness. Ordinary pleasure comes from bāhyasparśa, contact with outer objects. One who is not attached to these finds a happiness within the self (ātman). Joined to Brahman through yoga, such a person enjoys akṣaya sukha, happiness that does not decay. The verse does not reject joy; it points to a deeper source of it. This prepares the next verse, which explains why pleasures born of contact cannot satisfy in the way the inner joy can.
