Bhagavad Gita Chapter 6.7

jitātmanaḥ praśāntasya

paramātmā samāhitaḥ

śītoṣṇa-sukha-duḥkheṣu

tathā mānāpamānayoḥ

Translation

For one who has conquered the mind, the Supersoul is already reached, for he has attained tranquillity. To such a man happiness and distress, heat and cold, honor and dishonor are all the same.

Author Name:-Sri Ramanuja

purport

Sri Ramanuja

Of him whose self is conquered, i.e., whose mind is conquered, whose mind is free from fluctuations and who is very calm, ‘the great self’ becomes well secured, i.e., exceedingly well secured in connection with heat and cold, pleasure and pain, and honour and dishonour. Here the individual self (Pratyagatman) is called ‘the great self’ (Paramatman), as the context justifies this only. It can also be called ‘great’, because it is at a higher stage relatively to previous successive stages. Or the word may be construed as follows: The self is secured greatly — Atma parma samahitah. [In any case it should not be taken as the Supreme Being.

Moreover, (he should be equipoised) sita-usna-sukha-duhkhesu, in the midst of cold and heat, happiness and sorrow; tatha, as also; mana-apamanayoh in honour and dishonour, adoration and despise.
