Objaśnienie

The verse is frank about the strength of the senses. Even a discerning person who is actively striving can have the mind carried off by the senses, which are called pramāthin, turbulent or churning. Krishna does not pretend that self-control is easy. He warns that intelligence and good intention are not enough on their own. The verse prepares the next one, which offers a remedy: not only restraint but also an inner orientation that gives the mind a place to rest.
