Shankaracharya's commentary, trans. Alladi Mahadeva Sastry (1897)
[1]They say that the senses are great; greater than the senses is the mind; greater than the mind is the intellect; but He who is greater than the intellect is the Self.
BG 3.42
इन्द्रियाणि पराण्याहुरिन्द्रियेभ्यः परं मनः । मनसस्तु परा बुद्धिर्यो बुद्धेः परतस्तु सः ॥
indriyāṇi parāṇy āhur indriyebhyaḥ paraṃ manaḥ | manasas tu parā buddhir yo buddheḥ paratas tu saḥ ||
"Senses < mind < intellect < Self. Know the hierarchy — the Self is highest, and from there desire can be defeated."
