Bhagavad Gita — Chapter 18, Verse 26

Moksha Sanyasa Yoga

मुक्तसङ्गोऽनहंवादी धृत्युत्साहसमन्वितः । सिद्ध्यसिद्ध्योर्निर्विकारः कर्ता सात्त्विक उच्यते ॥ २६ ॥

mukta-saṅgo ’nahaṁ-vādī dhṛity-utsāha-samanvitaḥ siddhy-asiddhyor nirvikāraḥ kartā sāttvika uchyate

Translation

A doer free from attachment and ego, full of resolve and enthusiasm, and unchanged by success or failure, is called sattvic.

Hindi Meaning (हिंदी अर्थ)

जो कर्ता आसक्ति से रहित, अहंकार के वचन न बोलने वाला, धैर्य और उत्साह से युक्त, तथा सिद्धि और असिद्धि में विकार-रहित है, वह सात्त्विक कहा जाता है।

Commentary

The ideal worker is described vividly. Anaham-vadi, literally "not saying 'I, I'," is someone who does not boast. Dhriti and utsaha, steadiness and enthusiasm, go together: detachment here does not mean lack of energy. And success or failure does not shake them.
