A person of steady wisdom is the one who retains equanimity in all situations. He is said Jnana. This intelligence is acquired by personal efforts called Sadhana. The term "Sthitaprajnasya" has been used both for the enlightened (God realized) soul, as well as the striver. The striver is one who is of firm resolve and who never budges from the spiritual path. The realized soul is the one whose intellect is already steadfast.
According to Lord Krishna, a striver can attain perfection (God realization) by any discipline (that of disinterested action, devotion, knowledge etc.) which he follows according to his interest and liking, and his perfection is described by that means only.
