Commentary (टीका)
This verse emphasizes the importance of *nirvikalpa samādhi* (unwavering meditation) for realizing the essence of *Brahman*. In the absence of such steady focus, the mind becomes susceptible to fluctuations, leading to a mingling of thoughts and concepts (*pratyaya-antara*). The teaching underscores the Vedantic view that achieving clear perception and understanding of ultimate reality requires stillness of the mind, which is traditionally achieved through meditation practices. The relentless movement of the mind (*calatā*) obstructs realizing the clarity required for true knowledge, reinforcing the importance of disciplined spiritual practice.
