✦ अर्थ

ध्यानयोग अध्याय में श्रीकृष्ण व्यावहारिक मार्गदर्शन देते हैं: योग न अधिक खाने वाले के लिए है, न बिल्कुल न खाने वाले के लिए; न अधिक सोने वाले के लिए, न सदा जागने वाले के लिए। आहार, निद्रा, कर्म और विश्राम — सभी दैनिक आदतों में संयम से ही साधना फलती है।

उत्पत्ति और कथा

Bhagavad Gita Chapter 6, Verse 16 · Bhagavan Sri Krishna (as recorded by Maharishi Veda Vyasa) · Ancient (part of the Mahabharata, c. 5th–2nd century BCE in present form)

Within the Dhyana Yoga chapter, Krishna moves from the posture and place of meditation to the lifestyle that supports it. This verse and the one that follows form the Gita's prescription of the 'middle way' of moderation, long before the seeker can hope to still the restless mind. It reflects the timeless wisdom that the body must be a balanced ally, not an enemy, on the path.

✦ शास्त्रों में वर्णित

Yogis affirm that those who honour this middle path of moderation find the body light and the mind clear, so that meditation deepens swiftly; ignoring it, they say, the most earnest practice falters through dullness or restlessness.

जप संख्या11बार

उत्तम समयMorning, while planning the day’s routine and meditation practice

Recite the verse as a reminder before fixing your daily schedule. Let it inspire moderate, regular habits — eat neither too much nor too little, sleep adequately but not excessively, balance work and rest. A disciplined, sattvic routine then makes seated meditation steady and fruitful.

अक्सर पूछे जाने वाले प्रश्न

Krishna teaches that yoga succeeds only with moderation. One who eats too much or fasts excessively, sleeps too much or stays awake too long, cannot attain the steadiness required for meditation. Balance in daily habits is essential.

Not extreme fasting. This verse explicitly says yoga is impossible for one who does not eat at all, just as for one who overeats. The Gita favours a balanced, moderate diet (described further in the next verse, 6.17).

The body and mind are instruments of yoga. Overeating brings dullness, starvation brings weakness, oversleeping brings inertia, and sleeplessness brings agitation. Moderation keeps the mind clear, light and steady for inner practice.

Establish a regular routine: moderate sattvic meals at fixed times, sufficient but not excessive sleep, balanced work and recreation. This regulated lifestyle, called yukta-ahara-vihara, is the foundation Krishna prescribes for meditation.
