Gem's from Bhagavan: Renunciation

[Guest guest]

Giving up activities means giving up attachment to activities or fruits

thereof, giving up the notion 'I am the doer'. The activities which this

body is destined to perform will have to be gone through. There is no

question of giving up such activities, whether one likes it or not.

 

If one remains fixed in the Self, the activities will still go on and their

success will not be affected. One should not have the idea that one is the

doer. The activities will still go on. That force, by whatever name you

call it, which brought the body into existence will see to it that the

activities which this body is meant to go through are brought about.
