English Translation of Sanskrit Commentary By Sri Shankaracharya's
2.60 Hi, for; kaunteya, O son of Kunti; pramathini, the turbulent; indriyani, organs; prasabham, violently; haranti, snatch away; manah, the mind; vipascitah, of an intelligent; purusasya, person; api, even; yatatah, while he is striving diligently [Repeatedly being mindful of the evils that arise from sense-objects.]  (or,) the words purusasya vipascitah (of an intelligent person) are to be connected with the remote word api (even). [The Commentator says that api may be construed either with yatatah or with vipascitah purusasya.-Tr.] Indeed, the organs confound a person who is inclined towards objects, and after confounding him, violently carry away his mind endowed with discriminating knoweldge, even when he is aware of this.
Since this is so, therefore,


English Translation of Commentary  - Dr. S. Sankaranarayan
2.60 Yattasyapi etc.  For, the mind of that ascetic too is carried away by the sense-organs.  Or, the expression yattasya api denotes  even of one who exerts.  [So], it is but the mind that is to be subdued by a man of Yoga.  Thus the second [estion] is decided.


English Translation of Ramanuja's Sanskrit Commentary
2.60 Except by the experience of the self, the hankering for objects will not go away. When the hankering for the sense-objects does not go away, the senses of even a wise man, though he is ever striving to subdue them, become refractory, i.e., become violent and carry away perforce the mind. Thus, the subduing of the senses depends on the vision of the self, and the vision of the self depends on the subduing of the senses. Conseently, i.e., because of this mutual dependence, firm devotion to knowledge is difficult to achieve.
