yoga of renunciation and becoming free, you will<br />

attain Me.<br />

English Translation of Sri Sankaracharya's Sanskrit<br />

Commentary - Swami Gambhirananda<br />

9.28 By dedicating to Me evam, thus; maksyase,<br />

you will become free; karma-bandhanaih, from<br />

bondage in the form of actions-actions themselves<br />

being the bonds; subha-asubha-phalaih, which are<br />

productive of good and bad results-i.e. from<br />

actions that have desirable (subha) and<br />

undesireable (asubha) results (phala). Sannyasa,<br />

renunciation, is that which results from dedication<br />

(of actions) to Me, and that is also yoga since it<br />

involves actions. He who has his mind (atma)<br />

endowed (yukta) with that yoga of renunciation<br />

(sannyasa-yoga) is sannyasa-yoga-yukta-atma.<br />

You, being such, having your mind endowed with<br />

the yoga of renunciation, and vimuktah, becoming<br />

free from the bonds of actions evern while living;<br />

upaisyasi, will attain, come; mam, to Me, when this<br />

body falls. In that case the Lord is possessed of<br />

love and hatred inasmuch as He favours the<br />

devotees, and not others? That is not so:<br />
