The difficulties usually arise from having to sever family relationships, to give up the connection of wife and children. But if anyone is able to tolerate such difficulties, surely his path to spiritual realization is complete. Similarly, in Arjuna's discharge of duties as a #i#kṣatriya#/i#, he is advised to persevere, even if it is difficult to fight with his family members or similarly beloved persons. Lord Caitanya took #i#sannyāsa#/i# at the age of twenty-four, and His dependants, young wife as well as old mother, had no one else to look after them. Yet for a higher cause He took #i#sannyāsa#/i# and was steady in the discharge of higher duties. That is the way of achieving liberation from material bondage. #/p# #/div# #/div# please wait#div class="mw-parser-output"# #h4##span class="mw-headline" id="TEXT_15"#TEXT 15#/span##/h4# #div class="devanagari"# #dl##dd#यं हि न व्यथयन्त्येते पुरुषं पुरुषर्षभ ।#/dd# #dd#समदुःखसुखं धीरं सोऽमृतत्वाय कल्पते ॥१५॥#/dd##/dl# #/div# #div class="verse"# #dl##dd#yaṁ hi na vyathayanty ete#/dd# #dd#puruṣaṁ puruṣarṣabha#/dd# #dd#sama-duḥkha-sukhaṁ dhīraṁ#/dd# #dd#so 'mṛtatvāya kalpate#/dd##/dl# #/div# #h4##span class="mw-headline" id="SYNONYMS"#SYNONYMS#/span##/h4# #div class="synonyms"# #p##i##a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" class="external text" href="//vanipedia.org/wiki/Special:VaniSearch?s=yam&tab=syno_o&ds=1"#yam#/i# — one to whom; #i##a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" class="external text" href="//vanipedia.org/wiki/Special:VaniSearch?s=hi&tab=syno_o&ds=1"#hi#/i# — certainly; #i##a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" class="external text" href="//vanipedia.org/wiki/Special:VaniSearch?s=na&tab=syno_o&ds=1"#na#/i# — never; #i##a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" class="external text" href="//vanipedia.org/wiki/Special:VaniSearch?s=vyathayanti&tab=syno_o&ds=1"#vyathayanti#/i# — are distressing; #i##a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" class="external text" href="//vanipedia.org/wiki/Special:VaniSearch?s=ete&tab=syno_o&ds=1"#ete#/i# — all these; #i##a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" class="external text" href="//vanipedia.org/wiki/Special:VaniSearch?s=puruṣam&tab=syno_o&ds=1"#puruṣam#/i# — to a person; #i##a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" class="external text" href="//vanipedia.org/wiki/Special:VaniSearch?s=puruṣa&tab=syno_o&ds=1"#puruṣa-#a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" class="external text" href="//vanipedia.org/wiki/Special:VaniSearch?s=ṛṣabha&tab=syno_o&ds=1"#ṛṣabha#/i# — O best among men; #i##a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" class="external text" href="//vanipedia.org/wiki/Special:VaniSearch?s=sama&tab=syno_o&ds=1"#sama#/i# — unaltered; #i##a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" class="external text" href="//vanipedia.org/wiki/Special:VaniSearch?s=duḥkha&tab=syno_o&ds=1"#duḥkha#/i# — in distress; #i##a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" class="external text" href="//vanipedia.org/wiki/Special:VaniSearch?s=sukham&tab=syno_o&ds=1"#sukham#/i# — and happiness; #i##a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" class="external text" href="//vanipedia.org/wiki/Special:VaniSearch?s=dhīram&tab=syno_o&ds=1"#dhīram#/i# — patient; #i##a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" class="external text" href="//vanipedia.org/wiki/Special:VaniSearch?s=saḥ&tab=syno_o&ds=1"#saḥ#/i# — he; #i##a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" class="external text" href="//vanipedia.org/wiki/Special:VaniSearch?s=amṛtatvāya&tab=syno_o&ds=1"#amṛtatvāya#/i# — for liberation; #i##a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" class="external text" href="//vanipedia.org/wiki/Special:VaniSearch?s=kalpate&tab=syno_o&ds=1"#kalpate#/i# — is considered eligible. #/p# #/div# #h4##span class="mw-headline" id="TRANSLATION"#TRANSLATION#/span##/h4# #div class="translation"# #p#O best among men [Arjuna], the person who is not disturbed by happiness and distress and is steady in both is certainly eligible for liberation. #/p# #/div# #h4##span class="mw-headline" id="PURPORT"#PURPORT#/span##/h4# #div class="purport"# #p#Anyone who is steady in his determination for the advanced stage of spiritual realization and can equally tolerate the onslaughts of distress and happiness is certainly a person eligible for liberation.
