Spiegazione

Krishna adds further traits. Such a person is content with yadṛcchālābha, whatever comes by chance, without striving for more. He has gone beyond the dvandvas, the pairs of opposites such as pleasure and pain, heat and cold, praise and blame. He feels no envy, and stays the same in success and failure. With all this, even when he acts, he is not bound. The verse echoes the second chapter's definition of yoga as evenness of mind, showing that freedom in action rests on inner balance.
