Explication

Krishna gathers the traits into a single picture. For one who is free from attachment, liberated, with a mind settled in knowledge (jñāna), and who acts only as sacrifice (yajña), action dissolves entirely, pravilīyate. The image is of something melting away without trace. This verse links the earlier teaching of the third chapter on action as sacrifice with the present chapter's emphasis on knowledge. It also leads into a passage that will widen the meaning of sacrifice to include many kinds of spiritual practice.
