Uitleg

Krishna adds the crucial condition. Even these purifying acts should be done without attachment and without craving for their fruits. He calls this his definite and highest view. Here the Gita's central teaching on action is restated at the climax of the dialogue: one acts fully, yet holds the results lightly. Relinquishment in its true sense is not giving up action, but giving up the grasping that usually accompanies it.
