Bhagavad Gita 5.10

He who acts, offering all actions to the Divine, abandoning attachment, is untainted by sin, as a lotus leaf is by water.

Theme: Purpose

"He who acts, offering all actions to the Divine, abandoning attachment, is untainted by sin, as a lotus leaf is by water."

Modern explanation

In a moment of stillness, receive this: You can be fully in the world and not be stained by it, when the work is done as offering, not grasping.

Practical application

Ask: if no one would ever know, what work would I still want to do? Then schedule some of it.

Reflection question

If I had only one year, what would matter — and what would I quietly let go?
