Explicação
Krishna gives a practical reason for his teaching. No embodied being can give up action completely; breathing, eating and thinking are all actions. Therefore the real relinquisher is the one who gives up the fruits of action. The verse echoes earlier teaching that no one can remain without acting even for a moment. It moves the question from whether to act to how to act, which is the Gita's constant concern.
