Translations by Teachers (आचार्यो द्वारा अनुवाद):

Swami Ramsukhdas (Hindi)

।।3.34।। इन्द्रिय-इन्द्रियके अर्थमें (प्रत्येक इन्द्रियके प्रत्येक विषयमें) मनुष्यके राग और द्वेष व्यवस्थासे (अनुकूलता और प्रतिकूलताको लेकर) स्थित हैं। मनुष्यको उन दोनोंके वशमें नहीं होना चाहिये; क्योंकि वे दोनों ही इसके (पारमार्थिक मार्गमें विघ्न डालनेवाले) शत्रु हैं।

Swami Tejomayananda (Hindi)

।।3.34।। इन्द्रियइन्द्रिय (अर्थात् प्रत्येक इन्द्रिय) के विषय के प्रति (मन में) रागद्वेष रहते हैं;  मनुष्य को चाहिये कि वह उन दोनों के वश में न हो;  क्योंकि वे इसके (मनुष्य के) शत्रु हैं।।
 

Swami Adidevananda (English)

Each sense has a fixed attachment to and aversion for its corresponding object, but one should not come under their sway, for they are enemies.

Swami Gambirananda (English)

Attraction and repulsion are ordained with respect to the objects of all the organs. One should not be swayed by these two, as they are adversaries.

Swami Sivananda (English)

Attachment and aversion for the objects of the senses abide in the senses; let no one come under their sway; for, they are his enemies.

Dr. S. Sankaranarayan (English)

For a man of worldly life, there are clearly fixed likes and dislikes with regard to the objects of each of his sense organs. These are the obstacles for him; the wise would not come under their control.

Shri Purohit Swami (English)

The love and hate that are aroused by the objects of sense arise from Nature; do not yield to them, as they only obstruct the path.
