By thus engaging in devotional service to the Lord, great sages or devotees free themselves from the results of work in the material world. In this way they become free from the cycle of birth and death and attain the state beyond all miseries [by going back to Godhead].

Śaṅkarācārya

2.51 The words 'phalam tyaktva, by giving up the fruits' are connected with the remote word 'karmajam, produced by actions'. Hi, because; [Because, when actions are performed with an attitude of eanimity, it leads to becoming freed from sin etc. Therefore, by stages, it becomes the cause of Liberation as well.] buddhi-yuktah, those who are devoted to wisdom, who are imbued with the wisdom of eanimity; (they) becoming manisinah, men of Enlightenment; tyaktva, by giving up; phalam, the fruit, the acisition of desirable and undesriable bodies; [Desirable: the bodies of gods and others; undesirable: the bodies of animals etc.] karmajam, produced by actions; gacchanti, reach; padam, the state, the supreme state of Visnu, called Liberation; anamayam, beyond evils, i.e. beyond all evils; by having become janma-bandha-vinirmuktah, freed from the bondage of birth birth (janma) itself is a bondage (bandha); becoming freed from that , even while living. Or: Since it (buddhi) has been mentioned as the direct cause of the elimination of righteousness and unrighteousness, and so on, therefore what has been presented (in the three verses) beginning with, 'O Dhananjaya,৷৷.to the yoga of wisdom' (49), is enlightenment itself, which consists in the realization of the supreme Goal, which is comparable to a flood all around, and which arises from the purification of the mind as a result of Karma-yoga. [In the first portion of the Commentary buddhi has been taken to mean samattva buddhi (wisdom of eanimity); the alternative meaning of buddhi has been taken as 'enlightenment'. So, action is to be performed by taking the help of the 'wisdom about the supreme Reality' which has been chosen as one's Goal.]

Commentary · English

A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada

The liberated living entities belong to that place where there are no material miseries. The Bhāgavatam (10.14.58) says: samāṣritā ye pada-pallava-plavaṁ mahat-padaṁ puṇya-yaśo murāreḥ bhavāmbudhir vatsa-padaṁ paraṁ padaṁ padaṁ padaṁ yad vipadāṁ na teṣām “For one who has accepted the boat of the lotus feet of the Lord, who is the shelter of the cosmic manifestation and is famous as Mukunda, or the giver of mukti, the ocean of the material world is like the water contained in a calf’s footprint. Paraṁ padam, or the place where there are no material miseries, or Vaikuṇṭha, is his goal, not the place where there is danger in every step of life.” Owing to ignorance, one does not know that this material world is a miserable place where there are dangers at every step. Out of ignorance only, less intelligent persons try to adjust to the situation by fruitive activities, thinking that the resultant actions will make them happy. They do not know that no kind of material body anywhere within the universe can give life without miseries. The miseries of life, namely birth, death, old age and diseases, are present everywhere within the material world. But one who understands his real constitutional position as the eternal servitor of the Lord, and thus knows the position of the Personality of Godhead, engages himself in the transcendental loving service of the Lord. Consequently he becomes qualified to enter into the Vaikuṇṭha planets, where there is neither material, miserable life nor the influence of time and death. To know one’s constitutional position means to know also the sublime position of the Lord. One who wrongly thinks that the living entity’s position and the Lord’s position are on the same level is to be understood to be in darkness and therefore unable to engage himself in the devotional service of the Lord. He becomes a lord himself and thus paves the way for the repetition of birth and death. But one who, understanding that his position is to serve, transfers himself to the service of the Lord, at once becomes eligible for Vaikuṇṭha-loka. Service for the cause of the Lord is called karma-yoga or buddhi-yoga, or in plain words, devotional service to the Lord.

2.51 कर्मजम् actionborn? बुद्धियुक्ताः possessed of knowledsge? हि indeed? फलम् the fruit? त्यक्त्वा having abandoned? मनीषिणः the wise? जन्मबन्धविनिर्मुक्ताः freed from the fetters of birth? पदम् the abode? गच्छन्ति go? अनामयम् beyond evil.Commentary Clinging to the fruits of actions is the cause of rirth. Man takes a body to enjoy them. If anyone performs actions for the sake of God in fulfilment of His purpose without desire for the fruits? he is released from the bonds of birth and attains to the blissful state or the immortal abode.Sages who possess evenness of mind abandon the fruits of their actions and thus escape from good and bad actions.Buddhi referred to in the three verses 49? 50 and 51 may be the wisdom of the Sankhyas? i.e.? the knowledge of the Self or AtmaJnana which dawns when the mind is purified by Karma Yoga.

Swami Chinmayananda

।।2.51।। योगयुक्त बनने के उपदेश को सुनकर अर्जुन के मन में प्रश्न उठा कि आखिर समभाव से उसको कर्म क्यों करने चाहिये। भगवान् इस प्रश्न का कुछ पूर्वानुमान कर इस श्लोक में उसका उत्तर देते हैं। बुद्धियुक्त मनीषी का अर्थ है वह पुरुष जो जीने की कला को जानता हुआ फल की चिन्ताओं से मुक्त होकर मन के पूर्ण सन्तुलन को बनाये हुये सभी कर्म करता है। दूसरे शब्दों में अहंकार और स्वार्थ से रहित व्यक्ति ही मनीषी कहलाता है।मन के साथ तादात्म्य से अहंकार उत्पन्न होता है और वह फलासक्ति के कारण बन्धनों में फँस जाता है। जीवन में उच्च लक्ष्य को रखने पर ही अहंकार और स्वार्थ का त्याग संभव है।

Swami Ramsukhdas

2.51।। व्याख्या-- 'कर्मजं बुद्धियुक्ता हि फलं त्यक्त्वा मनीषिणः'-- जो समतासे युक्त हैं, वे ही वास्तवमें मनीषी अर्थात् बुद्धिमान् हैं। अठारहवें अध्यायके दसवें श्लोकमें भी कहा है कि जो मनुष्य अकुशल कर्मोंसे द्वेष नहीं करता और कुशल कर्मोंमें राग नहीं करता, वह मेधावी (बुद्धिमान्) है। कर्म तो फलके रूपमें परिणत होता ही है। उसके फलका त्याग कोई कर ही नहीं सकता। जैसे, कोई खेतीमें निष्कामभावसे बीज बोये, तो क्य खेतीमें अनाज नहीं होगा ?बोया है तो पैदा अवश्य होगा। ऐसे ही कोई निष्कामभावपूर्वक कर्म करता है, तो उसको कर्मका फल तो मिलेगा ही। अतः यहाँ कर्मजन्य फलका त्याग करनेका अर्थ है --कर्मजन्य फलकी इच्छा, कामना, ममता, वासनाका त्याग करना। इसका त्याग करनेमें सभी समर्थ हैं। 'जन्मबन्धविनिर्मुक्ताः'-- समतायुक्त मनीषी साधक जन्मरूप बन्धनसे मुक्त हो जाते हैं। कारण कि समतामें स्थित हो जानेसे उनमें राग-द्वेष कामना, वासना, ममता आदि दोष किञ्चिन्मात्र भी नहीं रहते, अतः उनके पुनर्जन्मका कारण ही नहीं रहता। वे जन्म-मरणरूप बन्धनसे सदाके लिये मुक्त हो जाते हैं। 'पदं गच्छन्त्यनामयम्'-- 'आमय' नाम रोगका है। रोग एक विकार है। जिसमें किञ्चिन्मात्र भी किसी प्रकारका विकार न हो, उसको 'अनामय' अर्थात् निर्विकार कहते हैं। समतायुक्त मनीषीलोग ऐसे निर्विकार पदको प्राप्त हो जाते हैं। इसी निर्विकार पदको पन्द्रहवें अध्यायके पाँचवें श्लोकमें 'अव्यय पद' और अठारहवें अध्यायके छप्पनवें श्लोकमें 'शाश्वत अव्यय पद' नामसे कहा गया है। यद्यपि गीतामें सत्त्वगुणको भी अनामय कहा गया है, (14। 6) पर वास्तवमें अनामय (निर्विकार) तो अपना स्वरूप अथवा परमात्मतत्त्व ही है; क्योंकि वह गुणातीत तत्त्व है, जिसको प्राप्त होकर फिर किसीको भी जन्म-मरणके चक्करमें नहीं आना पड़ता। परमात्मतत्त्वकी प्राप्तिमें हेतु होनेसे भगवान्ने सत्त्वगुणको भी अनामय कह दिया है। अनामय पदको प्राप्त होना क्या है? प्रकृति विकारशील है, तो उसका कार्य शरीर-संसार भी विकारशील हैं। स्वयं निर्विकार होते हुए भी जब यह विकारी शरीरके साथ तादात्म्य कर लेता है, तब यह अपनेको भी विकारी मान लेता है। परन्तु जब यह शरीरके साथ माने हुए सम्बन्धका त्याग कर देता है, तब इसको अपने सहज निर्विकार स्वरूपका अनुभव हो जाता है। इस स्वाभाविक निर्विकारताका अनुभव होनेको ही यहाँ अनामय पदको प्राप्त होना कहा गया है। इस श्लोकमें 'बुद्धियुक्ताः' और 'मनीषिणः' पदमें बहुवचन देनेका तात्पर्य है कि जो भी समतामें स्थित हो जाते हैं, वे सब-के-सब अनामय पदको प्राप्त हो जाते हैं, मुक्त हो जाते हैं। उनमेंसे कोई भी बाकी नहीं रहता। इस तरह समता अनामय पदकी प्राप्तिका अचूक उपाय है। इससे यह नियम सिद्ध होता है कि जब उत्पत्ति-विनाशशील पदार्थोंके साथ सम्बन्ध नहीं रहता, तब स्वतः सिद्ध निर्विकारताका अनुभव हो जाता है। इसके लिये कुछ भी परिश्रम नहीं करना पड़ता; क्योंकि उस निर्विकारताका निर्माण नहीं करना पड़ता, वह तो स्वतः-स्वाभाविक ही है। सम्बन्ध-- पूर्वश्लोकमें बताये अनामय पदकी प्राप्तिका क्रम क्या है--इसे आगेके दो श्लोकोंमें बताते हैं।
