Yoga Liberation by Renunciation (Gita 18)Chapter 18 Bhagavad Gita (Gandhi) Yoga of Liberation by Renunciation (Moksha Sannyasa)Courses: Bhagavad Gita - Jnana Yoga Chapter 18: The Yoga of the Liberation by Renunciation (Moksha Sannyasa) of the Bhagavad Gita. Spanish / EnglishChapter 18 of the Bhagavad Gita: Yoga Liberation by Renunciation (Moksha Sannyasa Yoga) Arjuna said: 1. O Mahabahu! I would like to learn both the secret of Sannyasa and that of Tyaga, O Hrishikesha, O Keshinishudana. The Lord said: 6. But even these actions must be done abandoning all attachment and fruit; such, O Partha, is my best and most considered opinion. 7. It is not correct to give up the work assigned to each one; His abandonment, arising from deception, is said to be Tamas. 8. He who abandons the action, considering it thankless and for fear of straining his limbs, will never obtain the fruit of abandonment, because his abandonment is Rajas. 10. That wise man, who practices abandonment and who has expelled all doubts from himself, who neither despises the unpleasant action nor clings to the pleasant action, is full of Sattva 11. It is not possible for an incarnated being to abandon the actions completely; but he who renounces the rewards of actions, he is truly called a renunciate (tyagi). 12. For those who do not practice abandonment, it accumulates. When they die, the fruit of their actions is of three types: unpleasant, pleasant and mixed; but it never (accumulates) for the Sannyasins (renouncers). 13. Learn from Me, O Mahabahu, the five factors mentioned in the Sankhya doctrine for the performance of all action: 14. The field (body), the doer, the various senses, the different functions, and the fifth, and last, the Invisible (the presiding deity). 15. Whatever action a man performs with his body, speech and mind, whether right or wrong, is due to these five causes. Etc. Thus ends the eighteenth chapter, entitled Sannyasa Yoga.
