3.23 यदि if, हि surely, अहम् I, न not, वर्तेयम् engage Myself in action, जातु ever, कर्मणि in action, अतन्द्रितः unwearied, मम My, वर्त्म path, अनुवर्तन्ते follow, मनुष्याः men, पार्थ O Partha, सर्वशः in every way.Commentary: If I remain inactive, people also will imitate Me and keep iet. They will all become Tamasic and pass into a state of inertia.
