Verse 49

Sānkhya Yoga — The Yoga of Discernment

O Dhananjaya, keep all abominable activities far distant by devotional service, and in that consciousness surrender unto the Lord. Those who want to enjoy the fruits of their work are misers.

Context & Meaning

Fruitive action is far inferior to yoga. Take shelter of buddhi-yoga. Those who seek fruits are misers.
