Which of the following is a feature of Sthitaprajna mentioned in Bhagvad Gita ?

  • A.Sam Dukhe Same Krutva
  • B.Tat tvam asi
  • C.Aham Brahmasmi
  • D.Dharayati iti Dharmah

Answer: A

The feature is Sam Dukhe Same Krutva.

The phrase is from the Gita's 'sukha-duhkhe same krtva', treating pleasure and pain, gain and loss, victory and defeat alike (2.38). Evenness of mind in pleasure and pain is exactly how the Gita describes the sthitaprajna, the person of steady wisdom, in the verses that follow in Chapter 2.

The other three are not Gita descriptions of the sthitaprajna. 'Tat tvam asi' (Chandogya Upanishad) and 'Aham Brahmasmi' (Brihadaranyaka Upanishad) are Upanishadic great sayings, and 'Dharayati iti dharmah' is a traditional definition of dharma as that which sustains.
