Ch 13Verse 10
Adhyāya 13 Shloka 10

असक्तिरनभिष्वङ्गः पुत्रदारगृहादिषु | नित्यं च समचित्तत्वमिष्टानिष्टोपपत्तिषु || १० ||

asaktir anabhiṣvaṅgaḥ putra-dāra-gṛhādiṣu | nityaṁ ca sama-cittatvam iṣṭāniṣṭopapattiṣu || 10 ||

"Detachment; freedom from entanglement with children, wife, home and the rest; even-mindedness amid pleasant and unpleasant events;"

Historical Context

The Direct Meaning

Knowledge also requires non-attachment (asaktir) and non-infatuation with family life (children, spouse, home). Furthermore, it demands a constant, unwavering emotional equilibrium (sama-cittatvam) regardless of whether favorable or unfavorable events occur.
