Guest guest Posted February 10, 2006 Report Share Posted February 10, 2006 Divine Message of His Holiness Shri Datta Swami Q) Sacrificing the ambition on the fruit of the work is sufficient. It is not necessary to sacrifice the fruit of the work as per Gita. Is it not correct? A) In the very beginning itself (second Adhyaya) Gita says that the fruit of the work must be sacrificed (Karmajam Buddhi Yuktahi Phalam Tyaktva Maneeshinah). This means that realized scholars sacrifice the fruit of the work. Gita keeps sacrifice of the fruit of the work on the top most level (Dhyanath Karma Phala Tyagah). According to Veda sacrifice of fruit of work means sacrifice of money only (Dhanena Tyagenaike). Karma Phalam means self-earned money with which the man is more attached. Reason for the inability to do the sacrifice of fruit of work (Karma Phala Tyaga) is the selfish ambition for the fruit of the work. Therefore if the selfish ambition is removed, the fruit of the work can be easily sacrificed. It is funny to enjoy the fruit of work and say that he has no ambition for the fruit of the work. In such case you must also enjoy the fruit of your sin in the hell i.e., cutting of your muscles by knife etc., without any selfish ambition. Saktuprastha was tested in the sacrifice of the fruit of the work, which alone can prove the lack of selfish ambition for the fruit of the work. If one says that he has sacrificed the ambition for the fruit of the work and yet, enjoys the fruit of work is trying to fool the author of Gita. In turn the Lord will fool him in the hell. posted by: His servant at the lotus feet of shri datta swami www.universal-spirituality.org "udaykumar S.K." <udaykumar001 wrote: Dear babaji, Bhai,pura padho na, This verse is from "Sankhya" one of the 17 paths toldby "Lord Shri krishna", The meaning of this verse is "those who do work withequality (endowed with spiritual intelligence) (samabudhdhi and atmanatma viveka)in both good an Mail Use Photomail to share photos without annoying attachments.
