For him there is no interest whatever in what is done or what is not done; nor does he depend on any being for any object.

For him there is no purpose here in what is done, nor in what is left undone, and he does not depend on any being for any purpose.

Krishna continues describing the person content in the self. Such a one gains nothing by acting and loses nothing by not acting. Nor does he depend on any other being for his own ends. He is complete. The verse shows that the realised person stands outside the logic of need and exchange that governs ordinary life. This sets up a surprising turn in the next verses: Krishna will urge Arjuna to act anyway, and will explain that even the free act, not from need but for the welfare of the world.
