Guest guest Posted September 28, 2004 Report Share Posted September 28, 2004 I have heard from the discourses of Sri Sri Dayananda Saraswati swamiji that Krishna never says that we are NOT ENTITLED for the fruits of action. Krishna says that the selection of fruits of action is not in our hands but depends on the Lord Krishna. There is a huge difference between thse two. He spends lot of time explaining this. It is also detailed in his book called "Bhagavad Geeta saaram" (tamil) He says that this is the most mis-quoted verse of Geeta. On this subject, There is one famous wall-poster which is hung / displayed on many homes of India in many languages. I don't know who created this but it is called "Geeta Saar". This starts by saying "What you have brought here and what you are going to take it away ..." etc. I read once from Sri Cho Ramaswamy that Swamiji has told him there is no such saying in Geeta like that. This is also one of the falsehood. Just to add to the clarification. Forgive me if this is incorrect. I don't know anything on philosophy!

Never consider yourself to be the cause of the results of your activities, and never be attached to not doing your duty.
