मूल श्लोकः

न हि ज्ञानेन सदृशं पवित्रमिह विद्यते।

तत्स्वयं योगसंसिद्धः कालेनात्मनि विन्दति।।4.38।।

Sanskrit Commentary By Sri Shankaracharya

।।4.38।। न हि ज्ञानेन सदृशं तुल्यं पवित्रं पावनं शुद्धिकरम् इह विद्यते। तत् ज्ञानं स्वयमेव योगसंसिद्धः योगेन कर्मयोगेन समाधियोगेन च संसिद्धः संस्कृतः योग्यताम् आपन्नः सन् मुमुक्षुः कालेन महता आत्मनि विन्दति लभते इत्यर्थः।।येन एकान्तेन ज्ञानप्राप्तिः भवति स उपायः उपदिश्यते

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

।।4.38।।क्योंकि ज्ञानका इतना प्रभाव है इसलिये ज्ञानके समान पवित्र करनेवाला शुद्ध करनेवाला इस लोकमें ( दूसरा कोई ) नहीं है। कर्मयोग या समाधियोगद्वारा बहुत कालमें भली प्रकार शुद्धान्तःकरण हुआ अर्थात् वैसी योग्यताको प्राप्त हुआ मुमुक्ष स्वयं अपने आत्मामें ही उस ज्ञानको पाता है यानी साक्षात् किया करता है।

English Translation By Swami Adidevananda

4.38 For there is no purifier here eal to knowledge; he that is perfected in Karma Yoga finds this (knowledge) of his own accord in himself in due time.

English Translation By Swami Sivananda

4.38 Verily, there is no purifier in this world like knowledge. He who is perfected in Yoga finds it in the Self in time.

English Translation Of Sri Shankaracharya's Sanskrit Commentary By Swami Gambirananda

4.38 Hi, indeed; na vidyate, there is nothing; pavitram, purifying, sanctifying; iha, here; sadrsam, comparable; jnanena, to Knowledge. Yoga-samsiddhah, one who has become perfected, who as attained fitness through yoga-the seeker after Liberation who has become samsiddhah, purified, qualified; yogena, through the yoga of Karma and the yoga of concentration-; kalena, after a long time; vindati, realizes, i.e. attains; tat, That, Knowledge; verily svayam, by himself; atmani, in his own heart. That means by which Knowledge is invariably attained is being taught:

English Translation By Swami Gambirananda

4.38 Indeed, there is nothing purifying here comparable to Knowledge. One who has become perfected after a (long) time through yoga, realizes That by himself in his own heart.

English Translation By By Dr. S. Sankaranarayan

4.38. In this world there exists no purifier comparabel to knowledge. One who becomes perfect in Yoga finds this, on his own accord, in his Self in course of time.

English Translation by Shri Purohit Swami

4.38 There is nothing in the world so purifying as wisdom; and he who is a perfect saint finds that at last in his own Self.
