Verse 11

The Yoga of Renunciation

The yogis, abandoning attachment, act with body, mind, intelligence and even with the senses, only for the purpose of purification.

Context & Meaning

Yogis use every instrument — body, mind, intellect, senses — not for personal gain but purely for self-purification. Action becomes worship when the motive is purification rather than acquisition.
