Far lower than the Yoga of wisdon is action, O Arjuna. Seek thou refuge in wisdom; wretched are they whose motive is the fruit.

Paliwanag

Krishna contrasts action driven by desire for results with buddhi-yoga, the yoga of understanding. The first is far inferior. He urges Arjuna to take refuge in understanding, and calls those who act only for results kṛpaṇa, pitiable or small-minded. The word recalls Arjuna's own description of himself at the start of the chapter, where he spoke of kārpaṇya, poverty of spirit. The verse gently suggests that the remedy for that condition lies in a clearer understanding of why one acts.
