Bhagavad-Gita The Song Divine Chapter 12 (stanza 12-20)

Knowledge is better than practice without discernment, meditation of God is superior to knowledge, and renunciation of the fruit of actions is even superior to meditation; for, peace immediately follows renunciation. …………….. (12)
He who is free from malice towards all beings, friendly and compassionate, and free from the feelings of 'I' and 'MINE', balanced in joy and sorrow, forgiving by nature, ever-contented and mentally united with Me, nay, who has subdued his mind, senses and body, has a firm resolve, and has surrendered his mind and reason to me - that devotee of Mine is dear to me. ………. (13-14)
He who is not a source of annoyance to his fellow-creatures, and who in his turn does not feel vexed with his fellow-creatures, and who is free from delight and envy, perturbation and fear, is dear to Me. ……. (15)
He who expects nothing, who is both internally and externally pure, is wise and impartial and has raised above all distractions, and who renounces the sense of doer-ship in all undertakings - such a devotee of Mine is dear to me.  …………. (16)
He who neither rejoices nor hates, nor grieves, nor desires, and who renounces both good and evil actions and is full of devotion, is dear to Me. …….. (17)
He who deals equally with friend and foe, and is the same in honor and ignominy, who is alike in heat and cold, pleasure and pain and other contrary experiences and is free from attachment, he who takes praise and reproach alike, and is given to contemplation and is contented with any means of subsistence available, entertaining no sense of ownership and attachment in respect of his dwelling-place and is full of devotion to me that person is dear to Me. ……. (18-19)
Those devotees, however, who partake in a disinterested way of this nectar of pious wisdom set forth above, endowed with faith and solely devoted to Me, they are extremely dear to Me. ……………. (20)
Thus, in the Upanishad sung by the Lord, the Science of Brahma, the scripture of Yoga, the dialogue between Sri Krishna and Arjun, ends the twelfth chapter entitled "The Yoga of Devotion."
