那些完全为自性(Prakriti)的德性(Gunas)所迷惑者,执着于德性(Gunas)的活动。遍知者不应扰乱那些不识全貌、心智迟钝之人。
Those who are wholly deluded by the gunas of Nature become attached to the activities of the gunas. The knower of the All should not disturb those of dull intellect, who do not know the All.
无知者带着对结果的期望而行动。了知自我的智者不应动摇这些无知者的信念。如果他们动摇了无知者的心智,无知者将放弃行动,成为惰性的受害者,过着闲散的生活。智者应鼓励无知者最初从事有求之业(Sakama type,即为求果报而行动)。智者应通过逐步教导无知者关于无私奉献(Karma Yoga)及其益处,即净化心灵以达致自我了悟,来转变他们的心智。
The ignorant people do action with the expectation of fruits. The wise people who have the knowledge of the Self should not distract the faith or conviction or belief of such ignorant persons. If they unsettle their minds they will give up actions and become victims of inertia. They will lead an idle life. They should be encouraged by the wise to do actions of the Sakama type (actions for the sake of their fruits) in the beginning. The wise ones should turn the minds of the ignorant by giving them gradual instructions on Karma Yoga (Yoga of selfless? desireless action) and its benefits? viz.? purification of the heart that leads to the attainment of Selfrealisation.
