Study Notes

Chapter 5: Renunciation of Action and Yoga of Action

The chapter discusses the concept of renunciation of action (sannyasa) and yoga of action (karma yoga).
Arjuna asks Krishna to clarify which path is better, renunciation of action or yoga of action.

Renunciation of Action and Yoga of Action

Both paths lead to the highest Bliss, but yoga of action is superior to renunciation of action.
Yoga of action involves performing actions without attachment to their fruits.

The True Nature of Action

One who does actions, offering them to Brahman, abandoning attachment, is not tainted by sin.
The actions of such a person are like a lotus leaf that remains unaffected by the water on it.

The Importance of Self-Control

A person who has control over their senses and is self-controlled is not bound by desire and attachment.
Such a person attains eternal peace.

The United and the Non-United

The united one (the well-poised or harmonized) attains eternal peace, while the non-united one (the unsteady or unbalanced) is bound by desire and attachment.

The Purification of the Self

Yogis perform actions merely by the body, mind, intellect, and senses for the purification of the self (ego).
The purification of the self leads to the realization of the Supreme (Brahman).

The Destroyer of Ignorance

Knowledge destroys ignorance and reveals the Supreme (Brahman).
The knowledge of the Self is like the sun, which illuminates the Supreme.

The Sinless

Those who have destroyed their ignorance and attained knowledge of the Self are sinless.
They are free from the bondage of desire and attachment.

The Equal-Eyed Sage

Sages look with an equal eye upon all beings, including a brahmana, a cow, an elephant, a dog, and an outcaste.
They are free from the duality of praise and blame.

The Happy Man

One who can withstand the impulses of desire and anger before liberation from the body is a happy man.
He is a yogi who has achieved absolute freedom or moksha.

The Illuminated

He who is happy within, rejoices within, and is illuminated within is a yogi who has attained absolute freedom or moksha.
He becomes Brahman himself.

The Rishis

The rishis obtain absolute freedom or moksha, whose sins have been destroyed, whose dualities are torn asunder, and who are self-controlled and intent on the welfare of all beings.
