Commentary (टीका)
This sloka underscores the necessity of mind purification for those who seek mukti or liberation. The mumukṣu, the seeker intensely desires liberation and hence must engage in manas (mind) śodhana (purification) with great diligence. The verse illustrates the inevitability of liberation when the mind is purified, describing it as karaphala, a tangible fruit that is within reach. It emphasizes the relationship between internal mental preparation and the ultimate experience of liberation. In Vedantic philosophy, a clear and purified mind is seen as the gateway to experiencing one's true ātman, or self.
