श्रीभगवानुवाच । काम्यानां कर्मणां न्यासं सन्न्यासं कवयो विदुः । सर्वकर्मफलत्यागं प्राहुस्त्यागं विचक्षणाः ॥ २ ॥
śhrī-bhagavān uvācha kāmyānāṁ karmaṇāṁ nyāsaṁ sannyāsaṁ kavayo viduḥ sarva-karma-phala-tyāgaṁ prāhus tyāgaṁ vichakṣhaṇāḥ
Translation
The Blessed Lord said: The wise understand sannyasa as giving up actions done from desire. The discerning call the relinquishing of the fruits of all actions tyaga.
Hindi Meaning (हिंदी अर्थ)
श्रीभगवान बोले: कई विद्वान काम्य कर्मों के त्याग को संन्यास समझते हैं, और विचारशील लोग सब कर्मों के फल के त्याग को त्याग कहते हैं।
Commentary
Krishna first reports two views held by thinkers of his time. Sannyasa is giving up kamya karma, actions done to fulfil personal desires. Tyaga is giving up the fruits of all actions while still performing them. Both are forms of letting go; the question is what exactly one lets go of.
