BHAGAVAD GITA · CHAPTER 5, VERSE 13
Bhagavad Gita 5.13
सर्वकर्माणि मनसा संन्यस्यास्ते सुखं वशी। नवद्वारे पुरे देही नैव कुर्वन्न कारयन्॥
Mental renunciation of all actions allows the self-controlled soul to rest happily in the city of nine gates (the body), neither acting nor causing action.
Internal detachment creates serene joy while living inside the physical body (metaphorically called a city with nine openings).
