"When
my heart is steeped in the love of you, who now can take away from
me the sense of oneness with all?"
It is to attain such love (bhakti)
that one is born. When the Gita says, "maate sango astu
akarmani." (Do not be attached to inaction), the meaning of
this, extends thus far, that while you act you must not retain even
the vasana (desire) of moksha, the attachment of
liberation or ultimate freedom from action. Freedom from moksha
is itself moksha. What track can moksha have with vasana?
When renunciation of fruit reaches this point, then the art of life
has attained completeness and perfection, and shines like the full
moon.
