3.1Arjuna said O Janardana (krsna), if it be Your opinion that wisdom is superior to action, why they do you urge me to horrible aciton, O Kesava ?3.2You bewilder my understanding, as it were, by a seemingly conflicting statement! Tell me for certain one of these by which I may attain the highest Good.3.3The Blessed Lord said O unblemished one, two kinds of steadfastness in this world were spoken of by Me in the days of yore-through the Yoga of Knowledge for the men of realization; through the Yoga of Action for the yogis.3.4A person does not attain freedom from action by abstaining from action; nor does he attain fulfilment merely through renunciation.3.5Because, no one ever remains even for a moment without doing work. For all are made to work under compulsion by the gunas born of Nature.3.6One, who after withdrawing the organs of action, sits mentally recollecting the objects of the senses, that one, of deluded mind, is called a hypocrite.3.7But, O Arjuna, one who engages in Karma-yoga with the organs of action, controlling the organs with the mind and becoming unattached-that one excels.3.8You perform the obligatory duties, for action is superior to inaction. And, through inaction, even the maintenance of your body will not be possible.3.9This man becomes bound by actions other than that action meant for God. Without being attached, O son of Kunti, you perform actions for Him.3.10In the days of yore, having created the beings together with the sacrifices, Prajapati said: 'By this you multiply. Let this be your yielder of coveted objects of desire.'
