18:23

Action that is prescribed, free from attachment, done without attraction or aversion, by one not seeking results—that is called sattvic.

Sanskrit

नियतं सङ्गरहितमरागद्वेषतः कृतम् | अफलप्रेप्सुना कर्म यत्तत्सात्त्विकमुच्यते ||

Transliteration

niyataṁ saṅga-rahitam arāga-dveṣataḥ kṛtam aphala-prepsunā karma yat tat sāttvikam ucyate

Commentary

Sattvic action is duty performed without attachment, free from like and dislike, with no expectation of reward. It is pure karma yoga—action as offering.
