Bhagavad Gītā (Kashmirian recension)12.12

12.12
श्रेयो हि ज्ञानमभ्यासाज्ज्ञानाद्ध्यानं विशिष्यते । ध्यानात्कर्मफलत्यागस्त्यागाच्छान्तिरनन्तरा ॥ १२-१२ ॥
śreyo hi jñānamabhyāsājjñānāddhyānaṃ viśiṣyate | dhyānātkarmaphalatyāgastyāgācchāntiranantarā || 12-12 ||
— better than practice is knowledge ; — than knowledge, meditation excels ; — than meditation, the renunciation of the fruit of action ; — from renunciation, peace comes at once

For knowledge is better than practice, meditation excels knowledge, and the renunciation of the fruit of action excels meditation; from such renunciation, peace follows at once.
