Translation

Swami Gambhīrānanda · follows Śaṅkara-bhāṣya

The supreme Self of one who has control over the aggregate of his body and organs, and who is tranquil, becomes manifest. He should be poised in the midst of cold and heat, happiness and sorrow, as well as honor and dishonor.

हिन्दी अनुवाद — Swami Tejomayānanda

शीत-उष्ण, सुख-दु:ख तथा मान-अपमान में जो प्रशान्त रहता है, ऐसे जितात्मा पुरुष के लिये परमात्मा सम्यक् प्रकार से स्थित है, अर्थात्, आत्मरूप से विद्यमान है।।

6.7Whose supreme Self stands steady in cold and heat, honour and disgrace?

The supreme Self of one who has control over the aggregate of his body and organs, and who is tranquil, becomes manifest. He should be poised in the midst of cold and heat, happiness and sorrow, as well as honor and dishonor.

The verse itself, in Swami Gambhīrānanda's rendering, is the answer. For reasoned solutions to knotty verses, browse the Q&A index.
