==== TEXT 17 ====

<div class="devanagari">
:यस्त्वात्मरतिरेव स्यादात्मतृप्तश्च मानवः ।
:आत्मन्येव च सन्तुष्टस्तस्य कार्यं न विद्यते ॥१७॥
</div>

<div class="verse">
:yas tv ātma-ratir eva syād
:ātma-tṛptaś ca mānavaḥ
:ātmany eva ca santuṣṭas
:tasya kāryaṁ na vidyate
</div>

==== SYNONYMS ====

<div class="synonyms">
''yaḥ''—one who; ''tu''—but; ''ātma-ratiḥ''—takes pleasure; ''eva''—certainly; ''syāt''—remains; ''ātma-tṛptaḥ''—self-illuminated; ''ca''—and; ''mānavaḥ''—a man; ''ātmani''—in himself; ''eva''—only; ''ca''—and; ''santuṣṭaḥ''—perfectly satiated; ''tasya''—his; ''kāryam''—duty; ''na''—does not; ''vidyate''—exist.
</div>

==== TRANSLATION ====

<div class="translation">
One who is, however, taking pleasure in the self, who is illumined in the self, who rejoices in and is satisfied with the self only, fully satiated—for him there is no duty.
</div>

==== PURPORT ====

<div class="purport">
A person who is ''fully'' Kṛṣṇa conscious, and is fully satisfied by his acts in Kṛṣṇa consciousness, no longer has any duty to perform. Due to his being Kṛṣṇa conscious, all impiety within is instantly cleansed, an effect of many, many thousands of ''yajña'' performances. By such clearing of consciousness, one becomes fully confident of his eternal position in relationship with the Supreme. His duty thus becomes self-illuminated by the grace of the Lord, and therefore he no longer has any obligations to the Vedic injunctions. Such a Kṛṣṇa conscious person is no longer interested in material activities and no longer takes pleasure in material arrangements like wine, women and similar infatuations.
