THE TEACHING IN BRIEF : SELF-KNOWLEDGE AND EQUANIMITY
 
"When my heart is steeped in the love of you, who now can take away from me the sense of oneness with all?"

It is to attain such love (bhakti) that one is born. When the Gita says, "maate sango astu akarmani." (Do not be attached to inaction), the meaning of this, extends thus far, that while you act you must not retain even the vasana (desire) of moksha, the attachment of liberation or ultimate freedom from action. Freedom from moksha is itself moksha. What track can moksha have with vasana? When renunciation of fruit reaches this point, then the art of life has attained completeness and perfection, and shines like the full moon.
