Absolute freedom (or Brahmic bliss) exists on all sides for those self-controlled ascetics who are free from desire and anger, who have controlled their thoughts and who have realised the Self.

For ascetics who are free from desire and anger, whose minds are controlled and who know the self, the peace of Brahman is near on every side.

Krishna adds that for yatis, disciplined strivers, who are free from desire (kāma) and anger, whose minds are mastered and who know the self (ātman), the peace of Brahman is abhitaḥ, all around them. Some read this as meaning that it is present both in this life and after death. The verse gives reassurance: the goal is not remote for those who have done the inner work. It is close at hand, surrounding them. This completes the description of the realised and prepares a brief account of meditation.
