The Yoga of Liberation by Renunciation

Krishna continues explaining how to transcend the gunas. 'Vivikta-sevī laghvāśī yatavāk-kāya-mānasaḥ'—living in solitude (vivikta-sevī), eating lightly (laghvāśī), controlling speech, body, and mind (yata-vāk-kāya-mānasaḥ). 'Dhyāna-yoga-paro nityaṁ vairāgyam samupāśritaḥ'—devoted to meditation (dhyāna-yoga-paraḥ), always (nityam) taking refuge in detachment (vairāgyam samupāśritaḥ). This completes the method: live simply, control your speech, body, and mind, practice meditation, and take refuge in detachment. This is the practical way to transcend the gunas: through simplicity, self-control, meditation, and detachment. When you practice these, you naturally transcend the gunas and move toward liberation.
