This verse is from the Bhagavad Gita, Chapter 6, Verse 44. It is written in Sanskrit and translates to English as follows:
pūrvābhyāsena tenaiva hriyate hyavaśho ’pi saḥ
jijñāsur api yogasya śhabda-brahmātivartate || 44 ||
English translation:
"A person who has practised Yoga in previous lives is drawn to Yoga from birth by the influence of that practice, even if he does so unconsciously or unwillingly. Such an inquisitive person, who wants to practice Yoga, rises above the rituals of the Vedas and moves towards higher self-knowledge."
Explanation in detail:
In this verse, Sri Krishna is telling Arjuna that if a person has practised Yoga in a previous life, that person advances on the path of Yoga in this life also because of the influence of his previous practice.
- Even if he does not remember, his practice leads him on the spiritual path.
- Such a person goes beyond rituals (the external deeds of the Vedas), transcends shabda-brahman (higher than even the words of the Vedas), and moves towards the Supreme Being.
