Complete source-study edition. The ancient Sanskrit and transliteration are followed by a full observation, comparison, learner-rendering and teach-back lesson. No unreviewed English line is presented as authoritative; use an identified edition or teacher when meaning turns on a contested reading.

tasmād asaktaḥ satataṁ kāryaṁ karma samāchara asakto hyācharan karma param āpnoti pūruṣhaḥ

Read one line aloud, cover it, and reconstruct as much as you can from memory.
Compare with a checked edition and record the source before adding any translation.
Build meaning without hiding the work
Distinguish action, duty, sacrifice, example, desire and attachment without treating karma-yoga as inactivity.
Mark forms you want to investigate
