# 58 : (VIDEO) : BHAGAVAD GITA : CHAPTER 5 : " The Yoga of Action and Knowledge " : EXPOSITION OF VERSES 1 TO 3




“So the whole technique of karma yoga… is to convert pravrtitti marga into nivritti marga. The path of renunciation, nivritti marga it is called. The path of activity is called as pravritti marga. So by converting karma into yoga what we are actually trying to accomplish is to make pravritti marga, a help and support in nivritti.  Karma should not bind me anymore if I know how to perform Karma yoga.”

 “…the world cannot twist the arm of such a person because he has no…hopes and expectations. Take the world as it comes…let it go as it goes. So be a sannyasi in the midst of this action…don’t think you have to give up all activity.”
