Chapter Summary

The most practical chapter on meditation ever written. Krishna describes the posture, place and discipline of practice, the balanced life it requires, and the mind 'like a lamp in a windless place'. When Arjuna protests that the mind is restless as the wind, Krishna offers the two keys: practice and detachment.
