Chapter 4 verse 19
“Whose undertakings are all devoid of desires and
purposes, and whose actions have been burnt by the ‘fire of knowledge’, him the
wise call a sage”
Further to previous verse, Lord qualifies ‘Unaction’ as action
which is desire less, there is no particular purpose or result expected out of
it and also it is performed with a sense of sacrifice to the divine. This
sacrificial attitude only arises in beings that have in them the fire burning
of Self knowledge. This fire anneals the heart from which desires arise which
gets converted to thoughts in the mind and results in desire laden action
through body and mind. Thus lets kindle that fire of knowledge and be qualified
to be called ‘real intellectual or sage like’.
