Bhagavad Gita 4.38
न हि ज्ञानेन सदृशं पवित्रमिह विद्यते। तत्स्वयं योगसंसिद्धः कालेनात्मनि विन्दति॥
na hi jñānena sadṛiśhaṁ pavitramiha vidyate tatsvayaṁ yogasansiddhaḥ kālenātmani vindati
Translation
Verily there is no purifier in this world like wisdom; he that is perfected in yoga finds it in the Self in due season.
What it means
There is no purifier in this world equal to knowledge; one perfected in yoga finds it in oneself in time. Nothing external cleanses like understanding. And it is discovered inside, not imported.
Try this today
Nothing cleanses like understanding - not ritual, penance or time. And it arrives on its own schedule to the practicing person.
Something to reflect on
What am I using to cleanse - ritual, time, distraction - that only understanding can?
