Verse 18.9

कार्यमित्येव यत्कर्म नियतं क्रियतेऽर्जुन।सङ्गं त्यक्त्वा फलं चैव स त्यागः सात्त्विको मतः।।18.9।।

kāryam ity eva yat karma niyataṁ kriyate ‘rjuna saṅgaṁ tyaktvā phalaṁ chaiva sa tyāgaḥ sāttviko mataḥ

Meaning

Yo Arjuna, whatever you gotta do, do it. No attachment, no thirst for rewards. That's pure, straight-up.

Commentary

Bro, a person with pure vibes just does what they gotta do, no cap. They ain't all ego-tripping about being the one who did it, and they ain't thirsty for rewards. It's like, some clueless peeps think doing their duty magically cleanses their soul and prevents bad karma. Nah, fam, ditch that mindset. This verse is all about letting go of the rewards. When you do your thing without being attached or selfish, your mind gets purified, and you're ready for some serious self-discovery. It's like, leveling up your spiritual game. To reach enlightenment, you gotta be ready to suffer a little, physically. Self-discipline and sacrifice? Yeah, that's gonna sting sometimes. The Gita's main point? Do your thing, but keep it real, no strings attached.
