Bhagavad Gita : Karma Yoga, chap.3

Arjuna used to believe on Krishna; whatever Krishna said to him – he had the firm belief on that. But he was not completely cleared, so he further inquired to Krishna about Karma.

Krishna says –

  • There are two kind of person for self-realization; one gets by the gaining of knowledge (left-brain) and other gets by the devotion (right-brain).
  • Without Karma no-one can survive even for a moment, so everyone has to do some karma.
  • Do, your appropriate Karma, without Karma you can’t even feed your body.
  • Karma without attachment leads to self-realization; one should always perform karma without attachment.
  • King Janak, just got the self-realization while doing karma without attachment; one should do Karma in a way that other can learn a lesson.
  • Whatever karma, a self-realized person does – people follow that. And whatever teaching comes from a self-realized person’s behavior, the whole world follows that. [Take an example of Gotama Buddha, Jesus Christ etc.]
  • As the fire is covered by smoke, mirror by dust and, fetus by womb – the same way a person is inundated by desires, and thus pure consciousness of that person is subdued by the desires.
  • Sense organs, mind and intellect are the places of desire, using those places; desire puts a person in delusion.
  • Hey Arjuna! You and everyone are beyond sense organs, mind and intellect – knowing this fix your mind in spirituality and win over the desire.
