The ignorant pretend to be experts in action, speaking sweet words to gain favor—true wisdom lies beyond such pretense.
One has a right to action, never to its fruits. Never act for reward, nor be attached to inaction. (Bhagavad Gita)
If we renounce action, we fall; if we act, we risk bondage. The Vedas don’t resolve whether to act or renounce absolutely.
This world is bound by inherited karma; all beings influence and drive one another’s actions in interdependence.
Mere logic fails to purify or redeem; true karma and spiritual inquiry bring liberation—not dry speculation.
Just as parents cause birth, others influence the rise of a kingdom—the world moves due to cumulative karma.
Earth is the realm of action. Perform noble karma here—fire, air, and moon partake in distributing its fruits.
This world is the field of action; the next is the field of reward. What we do here is experienced beyond.
He who acts against society’s good is quickly destroyed—just as a poisonous snake is killed on sight.
A wise human, gaining peace and steadiness, reflects—what is the best karma I must do? Thus begins true inquiry.
