kriyante moksa-kanksibhih

tat--that; iti--thus; anabhisandhaya--without desiring; phalam--the fruitive result; yajna--of sacrifice; tapah--and penance; kriyah--activities; dana--of charity; kriyah--activities; ca--also; vividhah--various; kriyante--are done; moksa-kanksibhih--by those who actually desire liberation.

Without desiring fruitive results, one should perform various kinds of sacrifice, penance and charity with the word tat. The purpose of such transcendental activities is to get free from material entanglement.
