Bhagavad Gita — Chapter 17, Verse 25

Shraddhatraya Vibhaga Yoga

तदित्यनभिसन्धाय फलं यज्ञतपःक्रियाः । दानक्रियाश्च विविधाः क्रियन्ते मोक्षकाङ्क्षिभिः ॥ २५ ॥

tad ity anabhisandhāya phalaṁ yajña-tapaḥ-kriyāḥ dāna-kriyāśh cha vividhāḥ kriyante mokṣha-kāṅkṣhibhiḥ

Translation

Uttering "Tat" and without aiming at the fruit, seekers of liberation perform various acts of sacrifice, austerity and charity.

Hindi Meaning (हिंदी अर्थ)

"तत्" का उच्चारण करके, फल की इच्छा न रखते हुए, मोक्ष चाहने वाले पुरुष नाना प्रकार की यज्ञ, तप और दान की क्रियाएँ करते हैं।

Commentary

Tat means "That": the Absolute, beyond ourselves. Saying Tat reminds the doer that the act is offered to That, not done for oneself. It is the verbal form of letting go of the fruit, the heart of karma yoga.
