The Vedas deal with the three attributes (of Nature); be thou above these three attributes. O Arjuna, free yourself from the pairs of opposites, and ever remain in the ality of Sattva (goodness), freed from (the thought of) acisition and preservation, and be established in the Self.

The Vedas deal with the realm of the three qualities (guṇas); Arjuna, rise above the three qualities. Be free of the pairs of opposites, ever established in clarity, free of the urge to acquire and keep, and possessed of yourself.

Krishna says the Vedas largely concern the field of the three qualities (guṇa), sattva, rajas and tamas, which make up the changing world. He urges Arjuna to rise above them: to be free of the pairs of opposites, always grounded in clarity (sattva), free of anxiety about acquiring and keeping, and self-possessed. The verse is not a rejection of scripture but an invitation to a goal beyond the rewards scripture describes. It gives Arjuna a compact portrait of inner freedom.
