Description

Bhagavad-Gita -


yaGYArthAtkarmaNo.anyatra loko.aya.n karmabandhanaH .
tadartha.n karma kaunteya muktasaN^gaH samAchara .. 3\-9..

This man becomes bound by actions other than that action meant for God. Without being attached, O son of Kunti, you perform actions for Him. 3.9


tasmAdasaktaH satataM kAryaM karma samAchara .
asakto hyAcharankarma paramApnoti pUruShaH .. 3\-19..

Therefore, remaining unattached, always perform the obligatory duty, for, by performing (one's) duty without attachment, a person attains the Highest. 3.19


yaGYadAnatapaHkarma na tyAjya.n kAryameva tat.h .
yaGYo dAnaM tapashchaiva pAvanAni manIShiNAm.h .. 18\-5..


The practice of sacrifice, charity and austerity is not to be abandoned; it is surely to be undertaken. Sacrifice, charity and austerity are verily the purifiers of the wise. 18.5


etAnyapi tu karmANi saN^ga.n tyaktvA phalAni cha .
kartavyAnIti me pArtha nishchitaM matamuttamam.h .. 18\-6..

But even these actions have to be undertaken by renouncing attachment and (hankering for) results. This is My firm and best conclusion, O Partha. 18.6


kAyena manasA bud.hdhyA kevalairindriyairapi .
yoginaH karma kurvanti saN^ga.n tyaktvAtmashuddhaye .. 5\-11..

By giving up attachment, the yogis undertake work merely through the body, mind, intellect and even the organs, for the purification of themselves. 5.11


yoginAmapi sarveShAM mad.hgatenAntarAtmanA .
shraddhAvAnbhajate yo mA.n sa me yuktatamo mataH .. 6\-47..

Even among all the yogis, he who adores Me with his mind fixed on Me and with faith,he is considered by Me to be the best of the yogis. 6.47
