कृत्यं किमपि नैवास्ति न कापि हृदि रञ्जना, यथा जीवनमेवेह जीवन्मुक्तस्य योगिनः। ॥11॥

kṛtyaṁ kimapi naivāsti na kāpi hṛdi rañjanā, yathā jīvanam-eveha jīvanmuktasya yoginaḥ. (11)

A person who is truly free does not feel bound by responsibilities or attachments; they simply go through life, acting according to their circumstances without being tied to outcomes.
