Bhagavad Gita 2.44

Sankhya Yoga

भोगैश्वर्यप्रसक्तानां तयाऽपहृतचेतसाम् | व्यवसायात्मिका बुद्धिः समाधौ न विधीयते ||

bhogaiśvarya-prasaktānāṁ tayā 'pahṛta-cetasām vyavasāyātmikā buddhiḥ samādhau na vidhīyate

English

In the minds of those who are too attached to sense enjoyment and material opulence, and who are bewildered by such things, the resolute determination for devotional service to the Supreme Lord does not take place.

हिन्दी

जो भोग और ऐश्वर्य के प्रति आसक्तचित्त हैं, उनकी बुद्धि उस (भोग और ऐश्वर्य) में ही लगी रहती है; उनकी निश्चयात्मिका बुद्धि समाधि (परमात्मा) में नहीं लगती।
