। ॥ ८५४ ॥
In plain words
Self-knowledge serves to sever the belief that the body is the Self, while ritual action serves only to increase bondage. Action is rooted in ignorance, but knowledge destroys both.
Close to the Sanskrit
Knowledge is for the cutting off of the body-is-self intellect, (and) action is for the increase (of bondage). Action has ignorance as its root, but knowledge is the destroyer of both.
