About this listen

This verse is from the Bhagavad Gita, Chapter 14, Verse 25. The translation is:

  • Mānāpamānayoḥ tulyaḥ tulyo mitrāripakṣayoḥ
    Sarvārambha-parityāgī guṇātītaḥ sa ucyate

  • "One who is equal in honor and dishonor, who is the same towards friends, foes, and neutrals, and who renounces all endeavors, is said to have transcended the Gunas."

In this verse, Lord Krishna further elaborates on the nature of a person who has transcended the three Gunas (Sattva, Rajas, and Tamas). Such a person remains unaffected by praise or blame, treats all people equally—whether friends or enemies—and renounces attachment to worldly actions and outcomes. This state of detachment and equanimity indicates that the person has risen above the material qualities of the world and has attained spiritual wisdom.
