Madhvacharya's Dvaita Vedanta and translation of Sarvamoola containing Bhagavad Gita, Upanishads, and Brahmasutra.

Bhagavad Gīta Bhāshya

B.G 2.60

यततो ह्यपि कौन्तेय पुरुषस्य विपश्चितः। इंद्रियाणि प्रमाथीनि हरन्ति प्रसभं मनः ॥६०॥

O Arjuna, certainly, in-spite of trying, the senses that are harmful for one's character carry away the mind forcefully, even of the person with discriminatory knowledge.

Gīta Bhāshya 2.60

Person indicated in this verse is the one with ordinary knowledge, not transcendental. 'pramāthīni' - harmful to the character of the person.

अपरोक्षज्ञानरहितज्ञानिनोपि, साधारणयत्नवतोपि मनो हरन्ति इद्रियाणि। पुरुषस्य शरीराभिमानिनः को दोषस्ततः?

Even the mind of the materially knowledgeable without transcendental knowledge, who is engaged in normal endeavours, is carried away by senses. What fault is there in those engrossed in seeking pleasure for the physical body.

प्रमाथीनि प्रमथनशीलानि पुरुषस्य ॥६०॥

'pramāthīni' means those which endanger the character of the person.

बहुचित्रजगद्बहुधाकरणात् परशक्तिरनन्तगुणः परमः ।
सुखरूपममुष्य पदं परमं स्मरतस्तु भविष्यति तत्सततम् ॥
"The one who has created this variegated vast universe with varied forms has infinite power and is of infinite auspicious qualities. He certainly bestows the highest state of bliss to those who meditate on his ever happy essence." -Dwādasha stōtra 4.3
