Arise, slay thy enemies, enjoy a prosperous kingdom,

Perform your obligatory duty, because action is indeed better than inaction.

The true nature of action is very difficult to understand. Therefore, one should know the nature of attached action, the nature of detached action, and also the nature of forbidden action.

No one becomes a Karma-yogi who has not renounced the selfish motive behind an action.

A Karma-yogi performs action by body, mind, intellect, and senses, without attachment (or ego), only for self-purification.

Thus many types of sacrifice are described in the Vedas. Know them all to be born from Karma or the action of body, mind, and senses. Knowing this, you shall attain nirvana.

The deluded ones, who restrain their organs of action but mentally dwell upon the sense enjoyment, are called hypocrites.

Action is the product of the Qualities inherent in Nature.

Faith in sacrifice, charity, and austerity is also called SAT. The action for the sake of the Supreme is verily termed as SAT.
