Bhagavad Gita 4.14

English
Sanskrit
Hindi
Sanskrit

न मां कर्माणि लिम्पन्ति न मे कर्मफले स्पृहा | इति मां योऽभिजानाति कर्मभिर्न स बध्यते

Transliteration

na māṃ karmāṇi limpanti na me karmaphale spṛhā . iti māṃ yo.abhijānāti karmabhirna sa badhyate

English

Actions do not taint Me; for Me there is no hankering for the results of actions. One who knows Me thus, does not become bound by actions.

हिन्दी

कर्म मुझे लिप्त नहीं करते;  न मुझे कर्मफल में स्पृहा है। इस प्रकार मुझे जो जानता है, वह भी कर्मों से नहीं बन्धता है।।

Explanation — English

As I have neither egoism nor desire for fruits? I am not bound by actions. Wordly people think they are the agents and they perfrom actions. They also expect fruits for their actions. So they take birth again and again. If one works without attachment? without egoism? without expectation of fruits? he too will not be bound by actions. He will be freed from birth and death. (Cf.IX.9).

Explanation — हिन्दी

नित्य शुद्ध और परिपूर्ण आत्मा को किसी प्रकार की अपूर्णता का भान नहीं हो सकता जो किसी इच्छा को जन्म दे। इस दृष्टि से श्रीकृष्ण भगवान् कहते हैं कर्म मुझे दूषित नहीं कर सकते और न मुझे कर्मफल में कोई आसक्ति ही है। इच्छा अथवा कर्म का बन्धन जीवअहंकार के लिये ही हो सकता है। मन और बुद्धि की उपाधियों से युक्त चैतन्य आत्मा ही जीव कहा जाता है। इन उपाधियों के दोषयुक्त होने पर जीव ही दूषित हुआ समझा जाता है। इसे एक दृष्टान्त के द्वारा हम भली भांति समझ सकेंगे।यदि किसी पात्र में रखे जल में सूर्य प्रतिबिम्वित होता है तो उस प्रतिबिम्ब की स्थिति पूर्णतया उस जल की स्थिति पर निर्भर करती है। जल के शान्त अस्थिर अथवा मैले होने पर वह प्रतिबिम्ब भी स्थिर क्षुब्ध अथवा धुंधला दिखाई देगा। परन्तु महाकाश स्थित वास्तविक सूर्य पर इस चंचलता अथवा निश्चलता का कोई प्रभाव नहीं पड़ेगा। इसी प्रकार इच्छा आसक्ति आदि का प्रभाव अहंकार पर ही पड़ता है। नित्य मुक्त चैतन्य स्वरूप आत्मा इन सबसे किसी प्रकार भी दूषित नहीं होती।आत्मविकास की वैदिक साधना का यह अर्थ नवीन प्रतीत होता है। क्या इसके पूर्व किसी ने इसका आचरण किया था उत्तर है

4.1The Blessed Lord said I imparted this imperishable Yoga to Vivasvan, Vivasvan taught this to Manu, and Manu transmitted this to Iksavaku.4.2The king-sages knew this (yoga) which was received thus in regular succession. That Yoga, O destroyer of foes, in now lost owing to a long lapse of time.4.3That ancient Yoga itself, which is this, has been taught to you by Me today, considering that you are My devotee and friend, For, this (Yoga) is a profound secret.4.4Arjuna said Your birth was later, (whereas) the birth of Vivasvan was earlier. How am I to understand this that You instructed (him) in the beginning?4.5The Blessed Lord said O Arjuna, many lives of Mine have passed, and so have yours. I know them all, (but) you know not, O scorcher of enemies!4.6Though I am birthless, undecaying by nature, and the Lord of beings, (still) by subjugating My Prakriti, I take birth by means of My own Maya.4.7Whenever there is a decline in righteousness and a rise in unrighteousness, O Arjuna, at that time I manifest Myself.4.8For the protection of the pious, the destruction of the evil-doers, and establishing virtue, I manifest Myself in every age.4.9He who thus knows truly the divine birth and actions of Mine does not get rirth after casting off the body. He attains Me, O Arjuna.4.10Many who were devoid of attachment, fear and anger, who were absorbed in Me, who had taken refuge in Me, and were purified by the austerity of Knowledge, have attained My state.
