The Yoga of Knowledge

After describing how the wise remain unshaken in suffering, Krishna now reveals what happens when good or bad comes. 'Sarvatrānabhisnehaḥ'—without sneha (attachment) everywhere. Not cold or uncaring, just not caught in desperate clinging. When life brings 'śubhāśubham'—pleasant and unpleasant things, such a person neither 'abhinandati' (rejoices excessively) nor 'dveṣṭi' (hates). Why? 'Anabhisnehaḥ'—no attachment means outcomes don't trigger extreme reactions. You appreciate good without making it your identity; you face bad without hatred. Then 'prajñā pratiṣṭhitā'—wisdom is steady, established.
