सक्ताः कर्मण्यविद्वांसो यथा कुर्वन्ति भारत। कुर्याद्विद्वांस्तथासक्तश्चिकीर्षुर्लोकसङ्ग्रहम्॥
saktah karmany avidvamso yatha kurvanti bharata kuryad vidvams tathasaktash chikirsur loka-sangraham
Translation
O Bharata, just as the ignorant act with attachment, so should the wise act without attachment, for the welfare of the world.
Commentary
The wise and the ignorant both perform actions, but their motivation differs. The ignorant act for personal gain; the wise act for the welfare of all. Same action, different consciousness, completely different results.
