भारत [bhArata] Arjuna, तस्मात् [tasmAt] that’s why छित्वा [chitvA] you must cut off एनम् सम्शयम् [enam samzayam] this suspicion, हृत्स्थम् [hRtstham] which has taken its place in your heart अज्ञान सम्भूतम् [ajJAna sambhUtam] due to ignorance. आत्मनः ज्ञानासिन [AtmanaH jJAnAsina] Cut it off using the knowledge of the Self as a sword. योगम् आतिष्ठ [yogam AtiSTha] Having done this, follow the path of working without being driven by attachments उत्तिष्ठ [uttiSTha] and get up.

Doubts and suspicions come from ignorance. Get rid of it by working without attachments.

Doubts and suspicions have taken their place inside you, due to your ignorance. Cut off these doubts about the Self, using the sword of knowledge – I’ve instructed this knowledge about the Self and the path of working without being driven by attachments. Get up to follow it.
