"real purport"

Bhagavad-gita As It Is

BG Chapters 1 - 6

Everything belongs to the Supreme Lord. That is the real purport of mayi, or "unto Me."

BG 3.30, Purport: Nirāśīḥ means that one has to act on the order of the master but should not expect fruitive results. The cashier may count millions of dollars for his employer, but he does not claim a cent for himself. Similarly, one has to realize that nothing in the world belongs to any individual person, but that everything belongs to the Supreme Lord. That is the real purport of mayi, or "unto Me." And when one acts in such Kṛṣṇa consciousness, certainly he does not claim proprietorship over anything. This consciousness is called nirmama, or "nothing is mine."
