balaṁ balavatāṁ chāhaṁ kāma-rāga-vivarjitam
dharmāviruddho bhūteṣhu kāmo ’smi bharatarṣhabha ||11||
English translation:
"O Arjuna! I am that power which comes from within, which is not filled with greed or lust, but with truth and self-control. And when any desire is also within the limits of Dharma – like doing good to someone, then that too is me."
Detailed explanation:
