All chaptersChapter 18: Moksha Sanyaas Yoga
Bhagavad Gita 18.34
Yoga through the Perfection of Renunciation and Surrender
यया तु धर्मकामार्थान् धृत्या धारयतेऽर्जुन। प्रसङ्गेन फलाकाङ्क्षी धृतिः सा पार्थ राजसी
yayā tu dharma-kāmārthān dhṛityā dhārayate ‘rjuna prasaṅgena phalākāṅkṣhī dhṛitiḥ sā pārtha rājasī
But that, O Arjuna, by which one holds fast to Dharma (duty), enjoyment of pleasures, and earning of wealth, on account of attachment and desire for reward—that firmness, O Arjuna, is Rajasic (passionate).
हे पृथानन्दन अर्जुन ! फलकी इच्छावाला मनुष्य जिस धृतिके द्वारा धर्म, काम (भोग) और अर्थको अत्यन्त आसक्तिपूर्वक धारण करता है, वह धृति राजसी है।
