Traduction

Whatever obligatory action is done, O Arjuna, merely because it ought to be done, abandoning attachment and also the desire for reward, that renunciation is regarded as Sattvic (pure).

Explication

Sattvic relinquishment is when one performs one's obligatory duty simply because it ought to be done, giving up attachment and the desire for its fruit. This is the kind Krishna has been urging all along. The action continues; what is given up is clinging. The verse resolves the debate described earlier in the chapter: the true relinquisher is not the one who stops acting, but the one who acts without being bound.
