That which knows engagement and renunciation, what is to be done and not done, fear and fearlessness, bondage and liberation — that intellect, O Arjuna, is sattvic.

"That which knows engagement and renunciation, what is to be done and not done, fear and fearlessness, bondage and liberation — that intellect, O Arjuna, is sattvic."
