Bhagavad Gīta Bhāshya and Tātparya
B.G 2.71
विहाय कामान् यः सर्वान् पुमांश्चरति निस्पृहः। निर्ममो निरहङ्कारः स शान्तिमधिगच्छति ॥७१॥
He who gives up all material desires and moves without selfish motive, whose every experience is without attachment, without ego, and without the concept of mine, such a person certainly attains the liberation.
Gīta Bhāshya 2.71
'kāmān' - material topics. 'nispr̥hatayā vihāya' - one who walks, eats, but does not think - 'I am eating', having given up ego and attachment.
एतदेव प्रपञ्चयति - विहायेति।
Same topic is further clarified by stating 'vihāya' verse.
कामान् विषयान्, निस्पृहतया विहाय यः चरति भक्षयति, भक्षयामीति अहङ्कारममकारवर्जितश्च स हि पुमान्। स एव च मुक्तिम् अधिगच्छतीत्यर्थः ॥७१॥
'kāmān' i.e. 'desires' means material topics. 'nispr̥hatayā vihāya' i.e 'gives up without selfishness', means he certainly is the one who walks, eats, but does not think - 'I am eating', having given up ego and attachment. Such a person can only attain liberation is the meaning.
Gīta Tātparya 2.71
Absence of forbidden desires enables one to give up all material desires. Having understood everything is under the control of the lord Hari, he relinquishes the concept of mine in all places.
निषिद्धस्पृहाभावमात्रेण सर्वविषयान् विहाय।
He gives up all material desires just by the absence of forbidden desires.
"अस्वरूपे स्वरूपत्वमतिरेव ह्यहङ्कृतिः। त्याज्या सर्वत्र ममता ज्ञात्वा सर्वं हरेर्वशे॥"
इति च ॥७१॥
The root of ego is believing that one has a specific form or essence, even though it's not true. Having understood everything is under the control of the lord Hari, he relinquishes attachment and the concept of mine in all places.

बहुचित्रजगद्बहुधाकरणात् परशक्तिरनन्तगुणः परमः ।
सुखरूपममुष्य पदं परमं स्मरतस्तु भविष्यति तत्सततम् ॥
"The one who has created this variegated vast universe with varied forms has infinite power and is of infinite auspicious qualities. He certainly bestows the highest state of bliss to those who meditate on his ever happy essence." -Dwādasha stōtra 4.3
