Charioteer: Mortal Soul Two Horses: Logic and Passions

The divine soul can see the truth, or Forms. But the black horse pulls you away. A philosopher can guide the two horses well.

3. Anu Geetha of Maha Bhaaratha

Source: Ashva Medha Parva, Anu Geetha Parva, Chapter 51

The mind yokes the senses as a charioteer yokes good steeds. The senses, the mind, and the understanding are always joined to the Kshetrajna. The individual soul, mounting the chariot to which big steeds are yoked and which has the understanding for the reins, drives about on all sides. With all the senses attached to it (for steeds), with the mind for the charioteer, and the understanding for the eternal reins, exists the great Brahman-car. Verily, that man endued with learning and wisdom who always understands the Brahman-car in this way, is never overwhelmed by delusion in the midst of all entities.
