CHAPTER 2
Curiosity About Action

विहाय कामान् य: सर्वान् पुमांश्चरति नि:स्पृह:।
निर्ममो निरहंकार: स शान्तिमधिगच्छति ॥71॥

[ ‘‘The man who has renounced all desire, and who conducts himself without ego, arrogance, and attachment, is the one who achieves peace.’’ ]

Men who have given up all desire, and whose actions are entirely free from the feelings of I and mine, realize the ultimate peace beyond which there is nothing to strive for and achieve.

एषा ब्राह्री स्थिति: पार्थ नैनां प्राप्य विमुह्राति।
स्थित्वास्यामन्तकालेऽपि ब्रह्रानिर्वाणमृच्छति॥72॥

[ “Such, O Arjun, is the steadfastness of the man who has realized God; after attaining to this state he subdues all temptation and, resting firmly in his faith, with his death he continues in this state of rapture of the union of his Self with God.’’ ]
