Activities which are mean only for gratification of the senses are karma. Now working at a job can also be spiritualized if one utilizes the fruits of that labor in some way to serve Lord Sri Krishna then the work can be made Krishna conscious. I hope that this finds you in good health. Your ever well wisher, Jayapataka Swami Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
