हिंदी अनुवाद - स्वामी रामसुख दास जी ( भगवद् गीता 3.26)
।।3.25  3.26।।हे भरतवंशोद्भव अर्जुन कर्ममें आसक्त हुए अज्ञानीजन जिस प्रकार कर्म करते हैं आसक्तिरहित विद्वान् भी लोकसंग्रह करना चाहता हुआ उसी प्रकार कर्म करे। तत्त्वज्ञ महापुरुष कर्मोंमें आसक्तिवाले अज्ञानी मनुष्योंकी बुद्धिमें भ्रम उत्पन्न न करे प्रत्युत स्वयं समस्त कर्मोंको अच्छी तरहसे करता हुआ उनसे भी वैसे ही करवाये।


English Translation of Sanskrit Commentary By Sri Shankaracharya's
3.26 Vidvan the enlightened man; na janayet, should not create; buddhi-bhedam, disturbance in the beliefs-disturbance in the firm belief, This has to be done; and the result of this action is to be reaped by me; ajnanam, of the ignorant, of the non-discriminating one; karma-sanginam, who are attached to work. But what should he do? Himself samacaran, working, performing those very activities of the ignorant; yuktah, while remaining diligent; josayet, he should make them do; sarva-karmani, all the duties.
How does an anillumined, ignorant person be come attached to actions? In reply the Lord says:


English Translation of Commentary  - Dr. S. Sankaranarayan
3.26 Na  buddhi-etc.  Himself knowing in this way, let him perform actions and let him not disturb  the minds of common men.					
 [In the last verse]  reference is made  of  the ignorant person.  [The Lord]  now demonstrates  their ignorance -


English Translation of Ramanuja's Sanskrit Commentary
3.26 Do not bewilder the minds of ignorant aspirants by saying that there is, besides Karma Yoga, another way to the vision of the self. They cannot practise Jnana Yoga on account of their incomplete knowledge of the self, and attachment to action. They are alified for Karma Yoga because of their being fit only for activity on account of the subtle impressions of their beginningless Karma. What then follows from this?  It is this:  Even though one is alified for Jnana Yoga because of the complete knowledge of the self, one should do work, holding the view as said previously, that Karma Yoga by itself without Jnana Yoga is an independent means for the vision of the self. He should thus generate love for all types of activity among those who do not know the complete truth.

Sri Krsna declares (in the verses 27 to 30) the way in which the self is to be contemplated on as not being an agent as reired by Karma Yoga, after demonstrating the difference between the enlightened and unenlightened among those practising Karma Yoga.
