Abandoning without reserve all desires born of Sankalpa (thought and imagination) and completely restraining the whole group of the senses by the mind from all sides.

Giving up completely all desires born of self-willed intention, and restraining the whole troop of the senses on every side by the mind alone,

Krishna begins a fresh set of practical instructions. The meditator should completely give up all desires born of saṅkalpa, the mind's planning and wishing. Then, using the mind itself, he should draw in the whole host of the senses from every side. The verse shows the mind as both the problem and the tool: the same faculty that generates desires can also gather the senses home. This sentence continues into the next verse, which describes the gradual stilling of thought.
