Commentary (टीका)
Krishna describes the blissful state of His devotees. They find joy in spiritual community (satsang), sharing divine knowledge with each other. The two words 'tushyanti' (satisfaction) and 'ramanti' (delight) describe inner contentment and joyful engagement. This verse beautifully portrays the devotional lifestyle as one of fulfillment and happiness.
