English Commentary By Swami Sivananda

6.46 तपस्विभ्यः than ascetics, अधिकः superior, योगी the Yogi, ज्ञानिभ्यः than the wise, अपि even, मतः thought, अधिकः superior, कर्मिभ्यः than the men of action, च and, अधिकः superior, योगी the Yogi, तस्मात् therefore, योगी a Yogi, भव be, अर्जुन O Arjuna.

Commentary:
Tapasvi One who observes the austerities of speech, mind and body prescribed in chapter XVII. 14, 15 and 16.Jnani One who has a knowledge of the scriptures (an indirect knowledge or theoretical knowledge of the Self).Karmi He who performs the Vedic rituals.To all these the Yogi is superior, for he has the direct knowledge of the Self through intuition or direct cognition through Nirvikalpa Samadhi. (Cf.V.2XII.12XIII.24)

Hindi Translation Of Sri Shankaracharya's Sanskrit Commentary By Sri Harikrishnadas Goenka

।।6.46।।ऐसा होनेके कारण तपस्वियों और ज्ञानियोंसे भी योगी अधिक है। यहाँ ज्ञान शास्त्रविषयक पाण्डित्यका नाम है उससे युक्त जो ज्ञानवान् हैं उनकी अपेक्षा योगी अधिक श्रेष्ठ है। तथा अग्निहोत्रादि कर्म करनेवालोंसे भी योगी अधिक श्रेष्ठ है इसलिये हे अर्जुन तू योगी है।

English Translation By Swami Adidevananda

6.46 Greater than the austere, greater than those who possess knowledge, greater than the ritualists is the Yogin. Therefore, O Arjuna, become a Yogin.

English Translation By Swami Sivananda

6.46 The Yogi is thought to be superior to the ascetics and even superior to men of knowledge (obtained through the study of scriptures); he is also superior to men of action; therefore be thou a Yogi, O Arjuna.

English Translation By Swami Gambirananda

6.46 A yogi is higher than men of austerity; he is considered higher even than men of knowledge. The yogi is also higher than men of action. Therefore, O Arjuna, do you become a yogi.
