यत्करोषि यदश्नासि यज्जुहोषि ददासि यत् | यत्तपस्यसि कौन्तेय तत्कुरुष्व मदर्पणम्
yatkaroṣi yadaśnāsi yajjuhoṣi dadāsi yat . yattapasyasi kaunteya tatkuruṣva madarpaṇam
貢蒂之子啊,無論你做什麼,無論你吃什麼,無論你獻上什麼祭品,無論你施捨什麼,以及無論你進行什麼苦行,所有這些都奉獻給我。
O son of Kunti, whatever you do, whatever you eat, whatever you offer as a sacrifice, whatever you give and whatever austerities you undertake, (all) that you offer to Me.
將所有行為奉獻給主。這樣你將從業報的束縛中解脫。你將在行動中獲得自由。試圖以這節經文的精神生活的人,將能夠向主自我臣服。他將逐步提升靈性之路。他貪婪的本性將慢慢消融。他總是給予,不渴望索取。他的一生,連同所有的行為、思想和感受,最終都獻給了主的服務。他只為主而活,只為主而工作。此刻沒有一絲一毫的自我主義。他的整個本性都轉化為神性。當行為奉獻給主時,你就不會有輪迴。這是瑜伽最簡單的方法。不要再浪費時間了,從今天開始實踐吧。所有的行為、所有的結果和所有的報酬都將歸於主。個體不再有獨立的生命。正如河流放棄自己的名字和形狀匯入大海一樣,個體靈魂也放棄自己的名字和形狀、自己的自私慾望和自我主義,與至高靈魂合一。個體的意志已與宇宙的意志合一。無論你隨心所欲地做什麼,無論你按照經典的規定獻上什麼祭品,無論你施捨什麼——例如黃金、米、酥油、衣服等給婆羅門和其他人——無論你進行什麼苦行,例如月亮齋戒(Chandrayana-Vrata,以消除罪惡)、感官控制等,所有這些都作為供品獻給我。現在,聽聽你這樣做會得到什麼。
Consecrate all acts to the Lord. Then you will be freed from the bondage of Karma. You will have freedom in action. He who tries to live in the spirit of this verse will be able to do selfsurrender unto the Lord. Gradually he ascends the spiritual path step by step. His greedy nature is slowly dissolved now. He always gives. He is not eager to take. His whole life with all its actions? thoughts and feelings? is dedicated to the service of the Lord eventually. He lives for the Lord only. He works for the Lord only. There is not a bit of egoism now. His whole nature is transformed into divinity. When actions are dedicated to the Lord? there is no rirth for you. This is the simplest method of Yoga. Do not waste your time any longer. Take it up from today.All actions? all results and all rewards will go to the Lord. There is no separte living for the individual. Just as the river joins the sea abandoning its own name and form so also the individual soul joins the Supreme Soul giving up his own name and form? his own egoistic desires and egoism. The individual will has become one with the cosmic will.Whatever thou doest of thy own sweet will? whatever thou offerest in sacrifice as enjoined in the scriptures? whatever thou givest -- such things as gold? rice? ghee? clothes? etc.? to the Brahmins and others -- whatever austerity such as the ChandrayanaVrata (to destroy sin)? control of the senses? etc.? thou doest? do thou all these as an offering unto Me. (Cf.V.32XII.6and8)Now listen to what you will gain by doing thus.
