Srimad Bhagavad Gita -Ramanujacharya

Chapter-2 Sankhya Yogaḥ

With regard to inaction, ie., abstaining from performance of duties, let there be no attachment to such inaction. Sri Krishna makes this clear in the following verse:— yogasthaḥ kuru karmāṇi saṅgaṁ tyaktvā dhanañjaya | siddhy-asiddhyoḥ samo bhūtvā samatvaṁ yoga ucyate || 48 || 48. Abandoning attachment and established in Yoga, perform works, viewing success and failure with an even mind. Equipoise is said to be Yoga. Commentary Commentary Abandoning the attachment to kingdom, relatives etc., establish yourself in Yoga, engage in war and other such activities. Perform these with equanimity as regards success and failure resulting from victory or defeat which are inherent in them. Yoga is defined in this verse as "equanimity with regard to success and failure.”
