A dense verse, and in it three orders in a row.
First: bhāvanayā muktaḥ — “freed by contemplation”. The word bhāvanā has already occurred (4.15): the nurturing of a thought to a glow.
Second: paramayā dhiyā — “by the highest reason”. Not by the intellect that sorts, but by the understanding that sees.
Third: dhāraya ātmānam avyagraḥ — “hold thyself, without darting”. Avyagra means “unhurried, not scattered”.
And the definition of the goal: grasta-cittaṃ citaḥ padam — “the station of consciousness that has swallowed the mind”.
The image is strong: the citta is not cast off, but grasta — “devoured”. The lesser is taken into the greater.
This is more exact than “destroyed”. The mind is not killed; it ceases to be separate, dissolving into that from which it came — as a wave does not perish, but turns out to be water.
