Yesam tvantagatam papam

Jananam punya-karmanam;

Te dvanda-moha-nirmuktah

Bhajante mam drdhavratah

But those men of virtuous deeds whose impurities have been destroyed- they, freed from all delusions of the pairs of opposites, worship me with firm resolve’,

Commenting on the first, Sankaracarya observes:

‘For it is well known that knowledge of things as they are, even in the external world, cannot rise in the minds of those who are under the thralldom of attachment and aversion; if this is so, what wonder is there that knowledge of the inner self, which is faced with many obstacles, does not arise in those who are enslaved by them consequently are deeply deluded.
