Who is the same in honour and dishonour, the same to friend and foe, abandoning all undertakings he is said to have transcended the alities.

who is the same in honour and dishonour, the same toward friend and foe, and who has given up all self-driven undertakings: such a one is said to have gone beyond the qualities.

The portrait closes with three more marks. Such a person is the same in honour and disgrace, and the same toward the side of friends and the side of enemies. They have given up all ārambha, undertakings begun from personal desire, the very restlessness named earlier as a sign of passion. Then the sentence ends: such a one is called guṇātīta, beyond the qualities. Equality toward friend and foe is a pointed phrase for Arjuna, who stands between two armies. It does not forbid action, but it removes hatred and partiality from it.
