Krishna describes the path to liberation: 'etair vimuktaḥ tamo-dvārais tribhiḥ'—freed from these three gates of darkness (desire, anger, greed). When you're freed from these three, you're no longer trapped in the cycle. 'Naraḥ ācaraty ātmanaḥ śreyas'—the person engages in actions conducive to the self's welfare. Not actions driven by desire, anger, or greed, but actions that truly benefit you—actions aligned with your true nature, actions that lead to growth, actions that serve. 'Tato yāti parāṁ gatim'—then attains the supreme goal. Liberation, freedom, the highest state. This is the path: abandon the three gates to hell (desire, anger, greed), engage in actions for your true welfare, and attain the supreme goal. This is the opposite of demonic nature: instead of being bound by desire, anger, and greed, you're free. Instead of acting from these three, you act from your true nature. Instead of descending into hell, you ascend to the supreme goal.
