योगस्थः कुरु कर्माणि सङ्गं त्यक्त्वा धनञ्जय।सिद्ध्यसिद्ध्योः समो भूत्वा समत्वं योग उच्यते ॥2.48॥

yogasthaḥ kuru karmāṇi saṅgaṃ tyaktvā dhanañjayasiddhyasiddhyoḥ samo bhūtvā samatvaṃ yoga ucyate

Meaning

Krishna says: established in yoga, Arjuna, do your work giving up attachment, staying even-minded in success and failure. This evenness of mind is called yoga.

हिंदी में अर्थ

श्रीकृष्ण कहते हैं: हे धनंजय, योग में स्थित होकर, आसक्ति छोड़कर अपने कर्म करो, और सफलता-असफलता में एक जैसे रहो। मन का यही संतुलन योग कहलाता है।
