Abhinavagupta’s commentary on the Bhagwad Gita

He who sees equally, whether in pleasure or pain, his own self in everything, because he can be compared with his own self, he is deemed the highest yogin Arjuna. – Chapter 6.33

The Yogin experiences the pleasures or suffering of all beings as his own.

Who is a Yogin?

A yogin is someone who has achieved a state of self-realization and union with the divine, often through dedicated practice and self-discipline. A yogin is characterized with equanimity, control over the senses and detachment from worldly desires, viewing everything dispassionately.
