He whose intellect is unattached everywhere, who has subdued his self, from whom desire has fled, he by renunciation, attains the supreme state of freedom from action.

Explication

The goal of all this is described. One whose understanding is unattached everywhere, who has mastered himself and is free from longing, reaches through renunciation (sannyāsa) the supreme perfection of naiṣkarmya, freedom from the binding power of action. The paradox is central to the Gita: freedom from action is reached not by refusing to act but by acting without attachment. Renunciation here means the inner renunciation described throughout the chapter.
