हे भारत ! कर्म में आसक्त हुए अज्ञानीजन जैसे कर्म करते हैं वैसे ही विद्वान् पुरुष अनासक्त होकर, लोकसंग्रह (लोक कल्याण) की इच्छा से कर्म करे।।

पारंपरिक भाष्य
The ignorant man works in expectation of fruits. He says? I will do such and such work and will get such and such fruit. But the wise man who knows the Self, serves not for his own end. He should so act that the world, following his example, would attain peace, harmony, purity of heart, divine light and knowledge. A wise man is one who knows the Self. (Cf. II.64III.19XVIII.49).
