ब्रह्मण्याधाय कर्माणि सङ्गं त्यक्त्वा करोति यः | लिप्यते न स पापेन पद्मपत्रमिवाम्भसा
brahmaṇyādhāya karmāṇi saṅgaṃ tyaktvā karoti yaḥ . lipyate na sa pāpena padmapatramivāmbhasā
凡將行動奉獻於梵,並捨棄執著而行事者,他不受罪惡所染,猶如蓮葉不沾水。
One who acts by dedicating actions to Brahman and by renouncing attachment, he does not become polluted by sin, just as a lotus leaf is not by water.
《薄伽梵歌》第四章的18、20、21、22、23、37、41節,以及第五章的10、11、12節,都傳達了一個共同的理念:瑜伽行者若無我執,不執著於行動的結果或果報,並將其視為對主的奉獻,則不會被行動(Karma)所玷污。他甚至對解脫(Moksha)也沒有執著。他在行動中看見無行動。他所有的行動都在智慧之火中被焚燒。他得以逃離輪迴(Samsara)之輪,擺脫生死的循環。他獲得心靈的純淨,並透過心靈的純淨達到自性(Self)的知識。透過自性的知識,他獲得解脫。這是上述十節經文的要旨。
Chapter IV verses 18? 20? 21? 22? 23? 37? 41 Chapter V verses 10? 11 and 12 all convey the one idea that the Yogi who does actions without egoism and attachment to results or fruits of the actions? which he regards as offerings unto the Lord? is not tainted by the actions (Karma). He has no attachment even for Moksha. He sees inaction in action. All his actions are burnt in the fire of wisdom. He escapes from the wheel of Samsara. He is freed from the round of births and deaths. He gets purity of heart and through purity of heart attains to the knowledge of the Self. Through the knowledge of the Self he is liberated. This is the gist of the above ten verses. (Cf.III.30)
