| Because no one can remain
actionless even for a moment. Everyone is driven to action, helplessly indeed, by the
Gunas of nature. (3.05)
The deluded ones, who restrain their organs of action
but mentally dwell upon the sense enjoyment, are called hypocrites. (3.06)
The one who controls the senses by the (trained and
purified) mind and intellect, and engages the organs of action to Nishkaama Karma-yoga, is superior, O Arjuna.
(3.07)
Perform your obligatory duty, because action is indeed
better than inaction. Even the maintenance of your
body would not be possible by inaction. (3.08) |
