यस्य सर्वे समारम्भाः कामसङ्कल्पवर्जिताः | ज्ञानाग्निदग्धकर्माणं तमाहुः पण्डितं बुधाः

yasya sarve samārambhāḥ kāmasaṅkalpavarjitāḥ . jñānāgnidagdhakarmāṇaṃ tamāhuḥ paṇḍitaṃ budhāḥ

The wise call him learned whose actions are all devoid of desires and their thougts, [Kama-sankalpa is variously translated as ‘desires and purposes’, ‘plans and desires for results’, ‘hankering for desires’, etc. But Sankarcarya shows sankalpa as the cause of kama. -Tr.] and whose actions have been burnt away by the fire of wisdom.

जिसके समस्त कार्य कामना और संकल्प से रहित हैं,  ऐसे उस ज्ञानरूप अग्नि के द्वारा भस्म हुये कर्मों वाले पुरुष को ज्ञानीजन पण्डित कहते हैं।।
