In English
He whose mind is entirely detached, who has conquered himself, and whose desires have vanished, reaches that stage of perfect freedom through his renunciation, where action completes itself and leaves no seed.
Translated by Shri Purohit Swami
He whose intellect is unattached everywhere, who has subdued his self, from whom desire has fled, he attains the supreme state of freedom from action through renunciation.
Translated by Swami Sivananda
