Sthitaprajña, in not transgressing limits, is said to be like the :

  • A.Sun
  • B.Moon
  • C.Ocean
  • D.Mountain

Answer: C

The sthitaprajna is compared to the ocean.

In Gita 2.70, the person of steady wisdom is said to be like the ocean, which stays within its bounds and is not disturbed even though rivers keep flowing into it. In the same way, desires enter the sthitaprajna without unsettling him, and he attains peace, unlike one who chases desires.

The sun, the moon and the mountain are not the images used in this passage. The point of the comparison is fullness that does not overflow its limits, which only the ocean receiving rivers conveys.
