But he who knows the Truth, O mighty-armed (Arjuna), about the divisions of the alities and (their) functions, knowing that the Gunas as senses move amidst the Gunas as the sense-objects, is not attached.

But one who knows the truth about the division of qualities and their actions, mighty-armed one, understanding that qualities act upon qualities, does not become attached.

The verse describes the alternative to the deluded view. One who knows the truth, tattvavit, sees how the qualities (guṇa) and their actions are distributed. He understands that it is the qualities, as senses and faculties, that move among other qualities, the objects of the senses. Seeing this, he does not cling. The phrase guṇā guṇeṣu vartante, qualities act on qualities, is a compact statement of detachment. It does not deny that action happens, but it removes the ego's claim on it, freeing the person from attachment.
