The three qualities are the subject of the Vedas. Be beyond the three qualities, Arjuna,
Beyond dualities, ever established in goodness, free of attachment to comfort, Self-possessed.

Translation

The Vedas deal with the three states or Gunas of mind. Become free from dualities, be ever balanced and unconcerned with the thoughts of acquisition and preservation. Rise above the three Gunas, and be Self-conscious, O Arjuna.

Translation

The Vedas mainly deal with the subject of the three modes of material nature. Rise above these modes, O Arjuna. Be transcendental to all of them. Be free from all dualities and from all anxieties for gain and safety, and be established in the Self.
