Tap a word to reveal its meaning. Say each one aloud as you go.
In English
The wise man who has attained purity, whose doubts are resolved, who is filled with the spirit of self-abnegation, does not shy away from action due to its pain, nor does he crave it due to its pleasure.
Translated by Shri Purohit Swami
The man of renunciation, pervaded by purity, intelligent, and with his doubts cut asunder, does not hate an unpleasant task nor is he attached to a pleasant one.
Translated by Swami Sivananda
