संन्यासस्तु महाबाहो दुःखमाप्तुमयोगतः । योगयुक्तो मुनिर्ब्रह्म नचिरेणाधिगच्छति॥६-२७-६॥
But renunciation, O mighty-armed one, is difficult to attain without Yoga. The sage disciplined in Yoga reaches Brahman before long.

योगयुक्तो विशुद्धात्मा विजितात्मा जितेन्द्रियः । सर्वभूतात्मभूतात्मा कुर्वन्नपि न लिप्यते॥६-२७-७॥
Disciplined in Yoga, with a purified inner self, self-mastered and sense-controlled, one who has become the self of all beings is not tainted even while acting.

The disciplined knower of reality should think, “I do nothing at all,” even while seeing, hearing, touching, smelling, eating, walking, sleeping, and breathing.

प्रलपन्विसृजन्गृह्णन्नुन्मिषन्निमिषन्नपि । इन्द्रियाणीन्द्रियार्थेषु वर्तन्त इति धारयन्॥६-२७-९॥
Speaking, releasing, grasping, and even opening and closing the eyes, he holds fast to the understanding, “The senses operate among the objects of the senses.”
english translation
ब्रह्मण्याधाय कर्माणि सङ्गं त्यक्त्वा करोति यः । लिप्यते न स पापेन पद्मपत्रमिवाम्भसा॥६-२७-१०॥
One who performs actions by placing them in Brahman and abandoning attachment is not tainted by demerit—like a lotus leaf by water.
