Sukham uttamam.

 This verse is from the Bhagavad Gita, Chapter 6, Verse 27.


"Prasanta manasam hy enam yoginam sukham uttamam

Upaiti santa rajasam brahma bhutam akalmasam"


"The yogi whose mind is peaceful, whose passions are subdued, and who is free from sin, attains supreme happiness, and comes to be united with Brahman (the Absolute)."


This verse emphasizes the benefits of practicing yoga and attaining a peaceful state of mind. 


- Prasanta manasam:A tranquil mind.

- Yoginam:The yogi, or practitioner of yoga.

- Sukham uttamam: Supreme happiness or bliss.

- Upaiti:Attains or reaches.

- Santa rajasam: One who has subdued the passions (rajas).

- Brahma bhutam: Having become one with Brahman, the ultimate reality or the Absolute.

-Akalmasam: Free from sin or impurities.


In essence, a yogi who has mastered their mind, subdued their desires and passions, and purified themselves from sins achieves ultimate bliss and becomes one with the supreme reality, Brahman.
