त्यक्तेष्टानिष्टसंकल्पो वीतरागो भवानघ ॥ २ ॥

tyakteṣṭāniṣṭasaṃkalpo vītarāgo bhavānagha || 2 ||

Be dispassionate, O sinless Arjuna! by forsaking your fear of death and decay of the body; and be as clear as the unclouded sky in your mind, by driving away the clouds of your cares from it, and dispelling all your aims and attempts either of good or evil for yourself or others.
