Bhagavad Gita · Chapter 5: Renunciation in Action

Bhagavad Gita 5.25

labhante brahmanirvāṇamṛṣayaḥ kṣīṇakalmaṣāḥ | chinnadvaidhā yatātmānaḥ sarvabhūtahite ratāḥ ||

The seers whose impurities have worn away, whose doubts are cut off, who are self-controlled and who delight in the good of all beings, attain liberation in Brahman.

Modern context

Four marks of those who reach freedom are given, and the last is the one to notice: they delight in the good of all beings. Inner freedom, as the Gita understands it, does not end in indifference. The person whose own struggles have quietened becomes more available to others. They are kind because it gives them joy, and duty has little to do with it. This is a useful check on any spiritual practice. If it is making a person care less about others, something has gone wrong.
