कर्मजं बुद्धियुक्ता हि फलं त्यक्त्वा मनीषिणः । जन्मबन्धविनिर्मुक्ताः पदं गच्छन्त्यनामयम्॥६-२४-५१॥

For the wise, endowed with discernment, having relinquished the result born of action, become freed from the bondage of birth and attain a state that is without affliction.

यदा ते मोहकलिलं बुद्धिर्व्यतितरिष्यति । तदा गन्तासि निर्वेदं श्रोतव्यस्य श्रुतस्य च॥६-२४-५२॥

When your discernment crosses beyond the mire of delusion, then you will attain dispassion toward what is yet to be heard and what has already been heard.

श्रुतिविप्रतिपन्ना ते यदा स्थास्यति निश्चला । समाधावचला बुद्धिस्तदा योगमवाप्स्यसि॥६-२४-५३॥

When your intellect, perplexed by competing scriptural claims, stands steady and unmoving, and when it is unwavering in concentration, then you will attain yoga.
