SIXTH DISCOURSE.
श्रीभगवानुवाच ।
अनाश्रितः कर्मफलं कार्यं कर्म करोति यः ।
स सन्यासि च योगी च न निरग्निर्न चाऽक्रियः॥ १॥
The Blessed Lord said:
He that performeth such action as is duty, ind. ependently of the fruit of action, he is an ascetic, he is a Yogi, not he that is without fire and without rites. ( 1 )
अनाश्रितः not-relying (on ); कर्मफलं =कर्मणः फलं of action, the fruit ; कार्य that ought to be done ; कर्म action ; करोति does; यः who; सः he; संन्यासी Sannyasi; च and ; योगी Yogi; च and; न not ; निरग्निः without fire; न not; च and; अक्रियः without action.
यं संन्यासमिति प्राहुर्योगं तं विद्धि पाडव ।
न ह्यसंन्यस्तसंकल्यो योगी भवति कश्चन ॥२॥
That which is called renunciation know thou that as yoga, O Pandava; nor doth any one become a Yogi with the formative will unrenounced. ( 2 )
1 The Sannyasi lights no sacrificial fire. and performs nor sacrifices nor ceremonies; but merely to omit these, without true renunciation, is not to be a real sannyasi.
2 The imaginative faculty, that makes plans for the future.
