Sanskrit
तत्रैवं सति कर्तारमात्मानं केवलं तु यः।पश्यत्यकृतबुद्धित्वान्न स पश्यति दुर्मतिः।।18.16।।
Transliteration
tatraivaṁ sati kartāram ātmānaṁ kevalaṁ tu yaḥ paśhyaty akṛita-buddhitvān na sa paśhyati durmatiḥ
Word by Word
Even as the Self remains eternally the witness—untouched by action, unbound by consequence—the foolish soul claims ownership of what the body does, enslaving itself in false doership. This delusion of 'I am the actor' is the very poison that binds us to karma's wheel; only when the mirror of intellect becomes pure does the soul recognize its eternal freedom.
—and feel the burden of false responsibility dissolve.
