प्रजहाति यदा कामान् सर्वान् पार्थ मनोगतान्।
आत्मन्येवात्मना तुष्टः स्थितप्रज्ञस्तदोच्यते।।2.55।।
।।2.55।।श्रीभगवान् बोले हे पृथानन्दन जिस कालमें साधक मनोगत सम्पूर्ण कामनाओंका अच्छी तरह त्याग कर देता है और अपनेआपसे अपनेआपमें ही सन्तुष्ट रहता है उस कालमें वह स्थितप्रज्ञ कहा जाता है।
Lord Krishna explains that when the particular activities of the adept of spiritual intelligence are described then the characteristics are recognised. Because one with spiritual intelligence focus their mind to be fully immersed solely in the soul, they are known as being soul satisfied. When such a one is so absorbed in the soul that all other desires abiding therein are completely banished then such a one is known as sthita-prajnah situated in transcendent consciousness. This is the paramount platform of spiritual intelligence in the mind. After this the next lower intermediate stage will be defined.
