Commentary called Jnaneshwari by Jnaneshwar:
The one who never feels worried over any actions to be performed, yet feels no attachment for the action-fruit, and whose mind is never touched by an egoistic idea like “I will perform action or I will perform to its end the action undertaken,” and who has the dross of the life of actions in the fire of all—inclusive knowledge, such a one, know ye, is the Supreme Brahman itself.
