मुक्त संगः [mukta saMgaH] A person who is free of attachment, अनहम्वादी [anahamvAdI] who doesn’t claim to make things happen धृति उत्साह समन्वितः [dhRti utsAha samanvitaH] is endowed with resolve and enthusiasm. निर्विकारः [nirvikAraH] Unmoved सिद्ध्यसिद्ध्योः [siddhyasiddhyoH] among achievements and failures, कर्ता [kartA] such a doer उच्यते [ucyate] is said to be सात्विक [sAtvika] in the quality of sattva .

During the activity, we achieve the state-of-being as a doer.

A person who is free of attachment is not bogged down by outcomes. He doesn’t claim to make things happen - he doesn’t have that arrogance.

Resolve and Enthusiasm are our state-of-being when we let-go of outcomes.

This person is endowed with resolve. Difficulties are inevitable in the journey to complete any work we’ve begun. Enduring those difficulties is called ‘resolve’.

The person is endowed with enthusiasm - it’s the strong will that comes from eagerness and devotion. He is unmoved among achievements and failures - in activities such as war and in acquiring materials in the form of tools that contribute towards it.

Such a doer is said to be in the quality of sattva .
