Culturing Our Self-realization - Prabhupada 0720

From Vaniquotes


660527 - Lecture BG 03.17-20 - New York

karmaṇaiva hi saṁsiddhim
āsthitā janakādayaḥ
loka-saṅgraham evāpi
sampaśyan kartum arhasi
(BG 3.20)

So you haven't got to give up your work, your duty. Go on doing your duty, but make your point that, "My life's main business is self-realization." You give more importance to that point of life, not to the point of that, "I shall earn more and enjoy life." No. That should be given up. That is called nonattachment. So if we go on working in nonattachment and culture our self-realization, then gradually we shall come to the perfectional point.
