Renounce the fruits of your actions
A discourse on the right to work and action without attachment, referencing the Bhagavad Gītā.
"Your right is to work only. We are born to work; this means action."
"Now, we do work, but we expect the fruits. Yet here God says, 'Never to the fruits thereof,' because we still do not know what we are doing."
The speaker addresses an evening gathering, prompted to discuss karma from the Gītā. He emphasizes that humanity's unique endowment of mind and intellect grants the freedom and duty to act. The core teaching presented is to perform one's work without attachment to the results, framed with the reasoning that human understanding of actions is inherently limited.
