We are all outwardly directed and dissipating our mind and senses. Shree Krishna first explains the state of the sages who experience the pleasure of God within themselves and then describes the state of those who are actively engaged in the welfare of all beings.

योऽन्त:सुखोऽन्तरारामस्तथान्तज्र्योतिरेव य: ।
स योगी ब्रह्मनिर्वाणं ब्रह्मभूतोऽधिगच्छति ।। 24।।
yo 'ntah-sukho 'ntar-aramas tathantar-jyotir eva yah
sa yogi brahma-nirvanam brahma-bhuto 'dhigachchhati
Bg 5.24: Those who are happy within themselves, enjoying the delight of God within, and are illumined by the inner light, such yogis are united with the Lord and are liberated from material existence.
लभन्ते ब्रह्मनिर्वाणमृषय: क्षीणकल्मषा: |
छिन्नद्वैधा यतात्मान: सर्वभूतहिते रता: || 25||
labhante brahma-nirvanam rishayah kshina-kalmashah
chhinna-dvaidha yatatmanah sarva-bhuta-hite ratah
BG 5.25: Those holy persons, whose sins have been purged, whose doubts are annihilated, whose minds are disciplined, and who are devoted to the welfare of all beings, attain God, and are liberated from material existence.
----------------------------------------------------
“Inner light” is the divine knowledge that is bestowed from within in the form of realization, by the grace of God, when we surrender to Him. After instructing Arjun about the need to withstand the impulses of desire and anger, Shree Krishna reveals the confidential means of practicing this. The words yo’ntah sukho mean “one who is internally happy.” There is one kind of happiness that we get from external objects, and another kind of happiness that we experience from within when we absorb the mind in God. If we do not experience happiness within, we will not be able to permanently resist external temptations. But when the bliss of God starts flowing within the heart, then the fleeting external pleasures seem trivial in comparison and are easy to renounce.
In Verse 5.25, Shree Krishna describes the state of the sages who are actively engaged in the welfare of all beings. The Ramayan states:
para upakāra bachana mana kāyā, santa sahaja subhāu khagarāyā
“The trait of compassion is the intrinsic nature of saints. Motivated by it, they use their words, mind, and body for the welfare of others.”
Human welfare is a praiseworthy endeavor. However, welfare schemes that are only committed to bodily care only result in temporary welfare. A person is hungry; he is given food, and his hunger is satiated. But after four hours, he is hungry again. Spiritual welfare goes right to the root of all material suffering, and endeavors to revive the God-consciousness of the soul. Hence, the highest welfare activity is to help a person unite his or her consciousness with God. This is the kind of welfare work that elevated souls with purified minds engage in. Such welfare activity further attracts God’s grace, which elevates them even further on the path. Finally, when they have achieved complete purification of the mind and perfected their surrender to God, they are liberated to the spiritual realm and the divine Abode.
