He who neither rejoices, nor hates, nor grieves, nor desires, renouncing good and evil, and who is full of devotion, is dear to Me.

One who neither rejoices nor hates, neither grieves nor craves, who has given up both good and evil, and is full of devotion, is dear to me.

Krishna lists four reactions that the devotee is free from: rejoicing, hating, grieving and craving. He has given up both good and evil, śubha and aśubha, and is full of devotion. Giving up good and evil does not mean moral indifference; traditions read it as releasing attachment to both pleasant and unpleasant results, or as going beyond actions done for merit and demerit. The verse describes an inner freedom from the swings of emotion that usually accompany success and failure.
