TRANSLATION One who neither
hates nor desires the fruits of his activities is known to be always renounced.
Such a person, liberated from all dualities, easily overcomes material
bondage and is completely liberated, O mighty-armed Arjuna.
PURPORT One who is fully
in Krsna consciousness is always a renouncer because he feels neither hatred
nor desire for the results of his actions. Such a renouncer, dedicated
to the transcendental loving service of the Lord, is fully qualified in
knowledge because he knows his constitutional position in his relationship
with Krsna. He knows fully well that Krsna is the whole and that he is
part and parcel of Krsna. Such knowledge is perfect because it is qualitatively
and quantitatively correct. The concept of oneness with Krsna is incorrect
because the part cannot be equal to the whole. Knowledge that one is one
in quality yet different in quantity is correct transcendental knowledge
leading one to become full in himself, having nothing to aspire to or lament
over. There is no duality in his mind because whatever he does, he does
for Krsna. Being thus freed from the platform of dualities, he is liberated--even
in this material world.
