Translation

One who is self-controlled and unattached and who disregards all material enjoyments can obtain, by practice of renunciation, the highest perfect stage of freedom from reaction.

Den, der er selvbehersket og utilknyttet, og som tilsidesætter al materiel nydelse, kan ved at udøve forsagelse opnå det højeste fuldendte stadie af frihed fra enhver reaktion.

Purport

Real renunciation means that one should always think himself part and parcel of the Supreme Lord and therefore think that he has no right to enjoy the results of his work. Since he is part and parcel of the Supreme Lord, the results of his work must be enjoyed by the Supreme Lord. This is actually Kṛṣṇa consciousness. The person acting in Kṛṣṇa consciousness is really a sannyāsī, one in the renounced order of life. By such a mentality, one is satisfied because he is actually acting for the Supreme. Thus he is not attached to anything material; he becomes accustomed to not taking pleasure in anything beyond the transcendental happiness derived from the service of the Lord. A sannyāsī is supposed to be free from the reactions of his past activities, but a person who is in Kṛṣṇa consciousness automatically attains this perfection without even accepting the so-called order of renunciation. This state of mind is called yogārūḍha, or the perfectional stage of yoga. As confirmed in the Third Chapter, yas tv ātma-ratir eva syāt: one who is satisfied in himself has no fear of any kind of reaction from his activity.

FORKLARING: Virkelig forsagelse vil sige altid at betragte sig selv som en uadskillelig del af den Højeste Herre og således tænke, at man ingen ret har til at nyde resultaterne af sit arbejde. Da man er en uadskillelig del af den Højeste Herre, skal resultaterne af ens arbejde nydes af Ham. Dette er sand Kṛṣṇa-bevidsthed. Den, der handler i Kṛṣṇa- bevidsthed, er virkelig en sannyāsī, en person i forsagelsens orden. En sådan mentalitet gør én tilfreds, for man handler rent faktisk for den Højeste. På den måde er man ikke knyttet til noget materielt. Man vænner sig til ikke at nyde andet end den transcendentale glæde, der kommer fra Herrens tjeneste. En sannyāsī formodes at være fri for reaktioner på sine tidligere handlinger, men en person, der er Kṛṣṇa-bevidst, opnår automatisk denne fuldendelse selv uden at acceptere den såkaldte forsagelsens orden. Denne sindstilstand kaldes yogārūḍha eller det fuldkomne yoga-stadie. Som det bliver bekræftet i kapitel 3 (vers 17), yas tv ātma-ratir eva syāt: Den, der er tilfreds i sig selv, behøver ikke at frygte nogen form for reaktion på sine handlinger.
