البيت 5.125.15.25.35.45.55.65.75.85.95.105.115.125.135.145.155.165.175.185.195.205.215.225.235.245.255.265.275.285.29

The united one (the well poised or the harmonised) having abandoned the fruit of action attains to the eternal peace: the non-united only (the unsteady or the unbalanced) impelled by desire, attached to the fruit, is bound.

The disciplined one, giving up the fruit of action, attains lasting peace; the undisciplined, attached to the fruit and driven by desire, is bound.

Krishna contrasts two kinds of people. The yukta, the one joined in yoga, gives up the fruit of action and reaches naiṣṭhikī śānti, a peace that is steady and lasting. The ayukta, who lacks this discipline, acts under the push of desire (kāma), clings to results and is bound. The same outward work leads to peace in one case and bondage in the other, depending only on inner attitude. The verse sums up much of the teaching in a single clear contrast, easy to remember and apply.
