O Dhananjaya! Actions do not bind him who has renounced all actions through Yoga; who has cut off his doubts by the sword of knowledge; and who is a master of his own self.
But the man who has renounced his action for meditation, who has cleft his doubt in twain by the sword of wisdom, who remains always enthroned in his Self, is not bound by his acts.
Actions do not bind him, O Arjuna, who has renounced them through Karma Yoga and whose doubts are sundered by knowledge, and who therefore possesses a steady mind.
O Dhananjaya (Arjuna), actions do not bind one who has renounced actions through yoga, whose doubt has been fully dispelled by Knowledge, and who is not inadvertent.
He who has renounced actions by Yoga, whose doubts are rent asunder by knowledge, and who is self-possessed,–actions do not bind him, O Arjuna!
