यस्त्विन्द्रियाणि मनसा नियम्यारभतेऽर्जुन। कर्मेन्द्रियैः कर्मयोगमसक्तः स विशिष्यते॥
yas tv indriyani manasa niyamyarabhate'rjuna karmendriyaih karma-yogam asaktah sa vishishyate
Translation
But whoever controls the senses with the mind, O Arjuna, and engages the organs of action in the yoga of selfless action without attachment — that person excels.
Commentary
The person who controls the mind while actively engaged in the world is superior to the one who merely withdraws from action. Active engagement with inner detachment is the ideal of Karma Yoga.
