ये तु सर्वाणि कर्माणि मयि संन्यस्य मत्पराः।अनन्येनैव योगेन मां ध्यायन्त उपासते॥
ye tu sarvāṇi karmāṇi mayi sannyasya mat-paraḥananyenaiva yogena māṃ dhyāyanta upāsate
Word by word
The verse says
But those who give all their actions over to me, who hold me as highest, who meditate on me with undivided practice and worship me —
In plain words
The alternative is described, and it is not a technique.
Sannyasya — setting down, handing over. The actions still happen; the ownership changes.
Nothing here requires a quiet room or a particular posture. It is about what your work is for.
Where you've felt this · in family life
Your mother cooks the same meals she has cooked for thirty years. Nothing about the cooking has changed. What changed, somewhere around the time the house emptied, is that she stopped doing it because it had to be done.
Going deeper
Handing over the action rather than stopping it is the move this book has been making since Chapter 3, and here it is attached to devotion rather than duty.
What is described is not an extra activity. The same work gets done — Arjuna is still going to fight — but it is performed as something given rather than something owned. That is a change in one invisible variable, and the chapter claims it changes everything downstream.
It also explains why this road is called easier. It requires no new time, no new skill and no quiet.
Which is worth testing against your own week. Most people cannot find an hour for anything. Everybody already does forty or fifty hours of something, and this verse is about those hours rather than about finding new ones.
