Human beings are bound by Karma (or works) other
than those done as Yajna. Therefore, O Arjuna, do your duty efficiently as a service or Seva to Me, free from attachment to the fruits of work. (3.09)
Yajna means sacrifice, selfless service,
unselfish work, Seva, meritorious deeds, giving away something to others, and a religious rite in which oblation is
offered to gods through the mouth of are.
Brahmaa, the creator, in the beginning created human
beings together with Yajna and said: By Yajna you shall prosper and Yajna shall
fulfill all your desires. (3.10)
Nourish the Devas with Yajna, and the Devas will
nourish you. Thus nourishing one another you shall attain the Supreme goal. (3.11) |
