Translator:
Even here in this world, those whose minds rest in reality overcome birth; Brahman is indeed spotless and real; therefore they are established in Brahman.

A Reading - Rantideb

Why: those whose minds are established in this equality overcome the cycle of birth and death here itself, with a mind free of blemish, established in Brahman, framing this leveled perception as a genuine, attainable form of freedom in this life, not just after death.

In life: a lot of daily tension comes specifically from unconsciously ranking people and situations as more or less worthy of your respect or attention.

Teaching: treat reducing your own hierarchical judgments as a practical source of daily peace, not just an abstract ethical ideal.

Deep Classical Commentary (Bhashya)

Author:
5.19 इह here? एव even? तैः by them? जितः is conered? सर्गः rirth or creation? येषाम् of whom? साम्ये in eality? स्थितम् established? मनः mind? निर्दोषम् spotless? हि indeed? समम् eal? ब्रह्म Brahman? तस्मात् therefore? ब्रह्मणि in Brahman? ते they? स्थिताः are established.Commentary When the mind gets rooted in eanimity or evenness or eality? when it is always in a balanced state? one coners birth and death. Bondage is annihilated and freedom is attained by him. When the mind is in a perfectly balanced state he overcomes Brahman Himself? i.e.? realises Brahman.Brahman is ever pure and attributeless and so He is not affected even though He dwells in an outcaste? dog? etc. So He is spotless. He is homogeneous and one? as He dwells eally in all beings.
