Penjelasan

Krishna describes how the mind is stilled: gradually, little by little, not by force. The understanding (buddhi) is held firm by dhṛti, steadiness or resolve. Then the mind is made to rest in the self, and the meditator thinks of nothing at all. The instruction to think of nothing does not mean falling into dullness, but letting the stream of thoughts subside while awareness remains. The emphasis on slowness is reassuring for anyone who has tried to meditate and found the mind refusing to cooperate.
