Bhagavad Gita 4.19
यस्य सर्वे समारम्भाः कामसङ्कल्पवर्जिताः। ज्ञानाग्निदग्धकर्माणं तमाहुः पण्डितं बुधाः॥
yasya sarve samārambhāḥ kāma-saṅkalpa-varjitāḥ jñānāgni-dagdha-karmāṇaṁ tam āhuḥ paṇḍitaṁ budhāḥ
Translation
Whose works are all free from the moulding of desire, whose actions are burned up by the fire of wisdom, him the wise have called a Sage.
What it means
One whose undertakings are all free of desire's shaping, whose actions are burned by the fire of knowledge, the wise call a sage. Wisdom is described as combustion: when knowledge is complete, the karmic residue is gone.
Try this today
Actions driven by craving leave residue; the same actions done in understanding leave none.
Something to reflect on
Which of my plans is shaped by craving rather than by seeing clearly?
