Chapter-3 Karma Yogaḥ

tasmāt-tvam-indriyāṇyādau niyamya bharatarṣabha | pāpmānaṃ prajahi hyenaṃ jñāna vijñāna nāśanam || 41 || 41. Therefore, O Arjuna, controlling the senses first, slay this deluding thing [desire] that destroys both knowledge and discrimination. Commentary Thus, you too, being immersed in Material Nature and shackled to sense-activities, should at the very commencement of the journey to Liberation, control the senses by the practice of Karma Yoga, and then, you must vanquish this deluding enemy in the form of desire which destroys wisdom relating to the true nature of the ātman and the discrimination, which is the means to gain this wisdom.
