One who is liberated from these three gates of hell, O
Arjuna, does what is best, and attains the supreme goal. (16.22)
One who acts under the influence of their desires,
disobeying scriptural injunctions, neither attains perfection nor happiness nor the supreme goal. (16.23)
Therefore, let the scripture be your in
determining what should be done and what should not be done. You should perform your duty following
the scriptural injunction. (16.24) |
