The Bhagavad Gita, a revered Hindu scripture, delves deep into the philosophy of Karma Yoga, emphasizing the importance of selfless action. In Verse 2.47, Bhagawan Shree Krishna imparts wisdom to Arjuna, stating: You have a right to perform your prescribed duties, but you are not entitled to the fruits of your actions. This verse encapsulates the essence of Karma Yoga – emphasizing the significance of detachment from the outcomes of our actions. By focusing on performing our duties with dedication and sincerity, without being attached to the results, we can attain a state of mental equanimity and spiritual growth. Note: Karma – performance of your dharma; actions performed according to dharma. They are duty bound. Trust the process and don’t get influenced by the results/outcome. Complete the process with the best possible efforts. In Verse 18.57, Bhagawan Shree Krishna reinforces the teachings of Karma Yoga by declaring:  In all activities, depend on Me and work always under My protection. This verse highlights the principle of surrendering one's actions to a higher power, trusting in the divine to guide and protect us. By acknowledging the presence of the divine in all our endeavors, we cultivate a sense of humility and devotion, understanding that we are mere instruments of a greater cosmic plan. Through practicing Karma Yoga with faith and dedication, we can transcend the ego and realize our interconnectedness with the universe, ultimately attaining spiritual fulfillment and liberation. Note: This will be applicable when you have reached to stage – I am not the owner of actions.
