अद्वेष्टा सर्वभूतानां मैत्रः करुण एव च | निर्ममो निरहंकारः समदुःखसुखः क्षमी ||१३||
adveṣhṭā sarva-bhūtānāṁ maitraḥ karuṇa eva cha nirmamo nirahaṅkāraḥ sama-duḥkha-sukhaḥ kṣhamī
對一切眾生無惡意者，友善且慈悲者，無佔有欲、無我執者，苦樂平等且寬恕者——
One who is free from malice toward all beings, who is friendly and compassionate, free from possessiveness and ego, equal in joy and sorrow, and forgiving —
克里希那在此描述了理想奉獻者的品格，而非儀式或知識。這些品質包括：對一切眾生無惡意、友善、慈悲、無佔有欲、無我執、苦樂平等以及寬恕。這可謂《薄伽梵歌》中最實用的靈性成熟定義。
Krishna describes the ideal devotee not in terms of rituals or knowledge, but character. Six qualities: no hatred, friendliness, compassion, no possessiveness, no ego, equanimity, and forgiveness. This is perhaps the most practical definition of spiritual maturity in the Gita.
