6.7
जितात्मनः प्रशान्तस्य परमात्मा समाहितः ।
शीतोष्णसुखदुःखेषु तथा मानापमानयोः ॥
jitātmanaḥ praśāntasya paramātmā samāhitaḥ
śītoṣṇasukhaduḥkheṣu tathā mānāpamānayoḥ
Kṛṣṇa (कृष्ण) is still speaking.
The verse
Of the man whose self is conquered and who has grown quiet, the supreme self is composed, in cold and heat, in pleasure and pain, and likewise in honor and dishonor.
नेपालीमा
आत्मा जितेको र शान्त भएको मानिसको परमात्मा जाडो र गर्मीमा, सुख र दुःखमा, र मान र अपमानमा स्थिर छ।
Where it sits
Conquering the self was the condition. This verse is the result you can see. The pairs of opposites no longer pull the composed self apart.
Split: जित-आत्मनः + प्रशान्तस्य + परम-आत्मा + समाहितः + शीत-उष्ण-सुख-दुःखेषु + तथा + मान-अपमानयोः
jita-ātmanaḥ + praśāntasya + parama-ātmā + samāhitaḥ + śīta-uṣṇa-sukha-duḥkheṣu + tathā + māna-apamānayoḥ

The phrases
jitātmanaḥ praśāntasya (जितात्मनः प्रशान्तस्य) is the man of 6.6, now quiet. The genitive says the rest of the verse is about him.
paramātmā samāhitaḥ (परमात्मा समाहितः) is what is said of him. His supreme self is composed. The locatives say where that composure is tested: cold and heat, pleasure and pain, and likewise honor and dishonor.
śīta uṣṇa (शीत उष्ण) is recited śītoṣṇa (शीतोष्ण). māna apamānayoḥ (मान अपमानयोः) is mānāpamānayoḥ (मानापमानयोः).
Sanskrit in this line
--yoḥ (योः) is the locative dual. māna (मान) and apamāna (अपमान) are two, so the ending is dual, not the plural --eṣu (एषु) that sits on the fourfold list śītoṣṇasukhaduḥkheṣu (शीतोष्णसुखदुःखेषु). Dual means two. Plural means more than two. tathā (तथा) is what joins a pair of a different count onto the list.
Say it back
Whose self, and in what pairs he stays composed. If mānāpamānayoḥ (मानापमानयोः) is said as one thing, "honor," the dual has been missed.
