Thus, you shall be freed from the bonds of actions yielding good and evil fruits; with the mind steadfast in the Yoga of renunciation, and liberated, you shall come to Me.
So, your action will have no result, either good or bad; but, through the spirit of renunciation, you will come to Me and be free.
Thus, you will become free from bondage in the form of actions which are productive of good and bad results. Having your mind imbued with the yoga of renunciation and becoming free, you will attain Me.
इस प्रकार मेरे अर्पण करनेसे जिनसे कर्मबन्धन होता है, ऐसे शुभ (विहित) और अशुभ (निषिद्ध) सम्पूर्ण कर्मोंके फलोंसे तू मुक्त हो जायगा। ऐसे अपनेसहित सब कुछ मेरे अर्पण करनेवाला और सबसे मुक्त हुआ तू मेरेको प्राप्त हो जायगा।Commentary
Evam Thus -- when you thus offer everything to Me. Renunciation of the fruits of all works is Sannyasa. He who is eipped with the mind steadfast in the Yog of renunciation is Sannyasayogayuktatma. The act of offering everything unto the Lord, constitutes the Yoga of renunciation. It is also Yoga as it is an action. With the mind endowed with renunciation and Yoga thou shalt be freed from good and evil results while yet living and thou shalt come unto Me when this body falls. An objector says?
Then the Lord has love and hatred as He confers His grace on His devotees only and not on others. The answer is? Not so. The Lord is impartial and is beyond love and hatred. His grace flows towards all. But the devotee recieves it freely as he has opened his heart to the reception of His grace. This is explained in the next verse.
