निश्चयं शृणु मे तत्र त्यागे भरतसत्तम । त्यागो हि पुरुषव्याघ्र त्रिविधः सम्प्रकीर्तितः ॥ ४ ॥
niśhchayaṁ śhṛiṇu me tatra tyāge bharata-sattama tyāgo hi puruṣha-vyāghra tri-vidhaḥ samprakīrtitaḥ
Translation
Hear My conclusion about relinquishment, O best of the Bharatas: relinquishment is declared to be of three kinds, O tiger among men.
Hindi Meaning (हिंदी अर्थ)
हे भरतश्रेष्ठ! त्याग के विषय में मेरा निश्चय सुनो। हे पुरुषव्याघ्र! त्याग तीन प्रकार का कहा गया है।
Commentary
"My conclusion" (nishchayam me) signals that Krishna is now giving his own authoritative view. As in chapters 14 and 17, he will sort renunciation by the three gunas, showing that even giving things up can be done in a good, a restless or a dull way.
