kāryam

यस्त्वात्मरतिरेव स्यादात्मतृप्तश्च मानवः

kāryam — duty

But the one who takes delight in the self, content in the self, satisfied in the self alone — for that one there is nothing that must be done.

तस्मादसक्तः सततं कार्यं कर्म समाचर

kāryam — duty

So do the work that falls to you, always, without attachment. Acting unattached, a person reaches the highest.

अनाश्रितः कर्मफलं कार्यं कर्म करोति यः

kāryam — obligatory

One who does the work that must be done without depending on its fruit — that one is both a renouncer and a practitioner of yoga; not the one who lights no fire and does nothing.

कार्यकारणकर्तृत्वे हेतुः प्रकृतिरुच्यते

kārya — effect

Nature is said to be the ground of cause and effect and of doing; the person is said to be the ground of the experience of pleasure and pain.

तस्माच्छास्त्रं प्रमाणं ते कार्याकार्यव्यवस्थितौ

kārya — duty

So let the scriptures be your measure in deciding what is to be done and what is not. Knowing what they teach, act.

कार्यमित्येव यत्कर्म नियतं क्रियतेऽर्जुन

kāryam — as a duty

But one who does the action that falls to them because it is to be done, having let go of attachment and of its fruit — that letting go is of clarity.

प्रवृत्तिं च निवृत्तिं च कार्याकार्ये भयाभये

kārya — proper action

The understanding that knows action and inaction, what should be done and what should not, fear and fearlessness, bondage and release, is of clarity.

यया धर्ममधर्मं च कार्यं चाकार्यमेव च

kāryam — right conduct

The understanding by which one wrongly grasps what is right and what is not, and what should be done and what should not, is of restlessness.
