Chapter 4: Jñāna Karma Sannyāsa Yoga – Renunciation of Actions through Enlightenment / Verse 23

Krishna again brings the concept of yajµa and links it to all the actions one performs, without any distinction like personal, familial, societal, national, global or religious. There is a way of transforming all that one does into yajµa. So, do not spoil the sublimity of human life and the various actions it involves. Adopt a uniform attitude towards all actions.

Drop delusional clinging. Instantly a sense of innate freedom, liberation, springs. This is accomplished by the merit and strength of spiritual knowledge. Remember, the entire dialogue is on knowledge, transmitting and imbibing it. Krishna transmits and Arjuna imbibes.

When the mind is firmly fixed in knowledge, saṅga is transcended and liberation follows. Thus graced, whatever one performs will be yajµa. And the effects in the mind will dissolve fully. Neither doership nor any taint will remain. Torment of bondage will give way to joy of liberation!
