अक्षरब्रह्मयोग (Akṣara-Brahma-Yoga) — Knowledge of the Imperishable, Prakṛti, and Devotion
युक्त: कर्मफलं त्यक्त्वा शान्तिमाप्रोति नैषप्ठिकीम् अयुक्त: कामकारेण फले सक्तो निबध्यते,कर्मयोगी कर्मोंके फलका त्याग करके भगवत्प्राप्तिरूप शान्तिको प्राप्त होता है और सकाम पुरुष कामनाकी प्रेरणासे फलमें आसक्त होकर बँधता है?
yuktaḥ karmaphalaṁ tyaktvā śāntim āpnoti naiṣṭhikīm; ayuktaḥ kāmakāreṇa phale sakto nibadhyate.
Arjuna dijo: «Quien está disciplinado—renunciando a los frutos de la acción—alcanza una paz firme. Pero quien carece de disciplina, movido por el deseo, se aferra al resultado y queda atado.»

Educational Q&A
Renouncing attachment to the fruits of action is the mark of a disciplined person and leads to steadfast inner peace; craving-driven attachment to outcomes creates bondage.
In the Bhīṣma Parva’s battlefield dialogue context, Arjuna articulates a moral-psychological contrast: the yogic agent who acts without clinging to results versus the desire-driven agent who becomes bound by outcomes.
