Renunciation and the Discipline of Action
भीष्मपर्वणि तु षड्विंशो5ध्याय:
na buddhibhedaṁ janayed ajñānāṁ karmasaṅginām | joṣayet sarvakarmāṇi vidvān yuktaḥ samācaran ||
যুক্ত হৈ সম্যক আচৰণ কৰা বিদ্বানে কৰ্মত আসক্ত অজ্ঞসকলৰ বুদ্ধিত ভেদ (ভ্ৰম/অশ্ৰদ্ধা) জন্মাব নালাগে; বৰং নিজে শাস্ত্ৰবিধি অনুসাৰে সকলো কৰ্ম সঠিকভাৱে কৰি, তেওঁলোককো সেই কৰ্মতেই প্ৰবৃত্ত কৰাব লাগে।

A spiritually disciplined person should not undermine the faith or clarity of those still attached to action; instead, by personally performing prescribed duties in a balanced way, he should inspire others to do their duties, gradually leading them toward steadiness and right understanding.
In the dialogue on the battlefield, Arjuna speaks within the ethical discussion of action and knowledge: the verse frames how the wise should relate to ordinary people—by guiding through example and encouragement rather than provoking skepticism toward dharmic work.
