।।12.17।। जो न हर्षित होता है और न द्वेष करता है न शोक करता है और न आकांक्षा तथा जो शुभ और अशुभ को त्याग देता है? वह भक्तिमान् पुरुष मुझे प्रिय है।।
13 14 Lord Krishnas devotee who is not exultant upon obtaining things which cause joy in mortals, who hates nothing, who grieves not over things that cause grief to mortals such as the death of family members, loss of wealth etc., who craves nothing being desireless for anything in the material existence, who renounces both pious and impious acts knowing they both result in bondage to karma or reactions to actions. Such a devotee is very dear to Lord Krishna.
