yathaidhānsi samiddho ’gnir bhasma-sāt kurute ’rjuna
jñānāgniḥ sarva-karmāṇi bhasma-sāt kurute tathā||37||

Meaning : Arjuna, understand the power of knowledge. Just as fire destroys fuel completely, when true knowledge awakens in you, it destroys all binding actions—whether good or bad. You become free. Nothing remains to hold you down, because wisdom turns even past karma into ashes.
