Swami Adidevananda (English)
For, it is impossible for one who has a body to completely abandon actions. But he who gives up the results of his works is called the one who has abandoned them.
Swami Gambirananda (English)
Since it is not possible for one who holds onto a body to give up actions entirely, therefore he who renounces the results of his actions is called a man of renunciation.
Swami Sivananda (English)
Indeed, it is not possible for an embodied being to completely abandon actions; however, he who relinquishes the rewards of actions is truly called a man of renunciation.
Dr. S. Sankaranarayan (English)
Indeed, to relinquish actions entirely is not possible for a body-bearing one; but whoever relinquishes the fruits of actions, he is said to be a man of [true] relinquishment.
Shri Purohit Swami (English)
But since those still in the body cannot entirely avoid action, in their case, the abandonment of the fruit of action is considered as complete renunciation.
