We are born with a specific nature and according to our nature, we must engage ourselves. Krishna further in BG 3.6 says that if one represses his senses of action but his mind is dwelling on the object of senses, then he is a pretender.<\/p><span style=\"display:block; font-size:0;height:0;\">Life Time Fitness &#8211; 14540 W Mcdowell Rd Goodyear, AZ &#8211; Health &#038; Fitness, Exercise &#038; Fitness Programs, Health Clubs &#8211; (623)-536-9595 <a href=\"https:\/\/nastassiafitness.com\/\" title=\"bodybuilding\">bodybuilding<\/a> cadillac align pilates: allows you to perform more than 80 different exercises &#8211; cadillac &#8211; pilates &#8211; aerobics, fitness and pilates &#8211; fisaude store<\/span>\n\n\n\n<p>But how must one act? Krishna says in BG 3.9 that action must be performed as yajna or sacrifice,&nbsp; otherwise, our actions will bind us to this material world. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><em><em>yaj\u00f1\u0101rth\u0101t karma\u1e47o \u2019nyatra<br>loko \u2019ya\u1e41 karma-bandhana\u1e25<br>tad-artha\u1e41 karma kaunteya<br>mukta-sa\u1e45ga\u1e25 sam\u0101cara<\/em><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>Translation- <\/strong>Work done as a sacrifice for Vi\u1e63\u1e47u has to be performed; otherwise work causes bondage in this material world.

Teachers teaching, mothers caring for kids, administrators protecting the citizens are some examples of sacrifice. The ultimate beneficiary of sacrifice is Vishnu, which liberates us. Karma yoga means all actions are to be done as a sacrifice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In essence, nobody can become freed from actions. Actions are born of nature and should be performed as sacrifices, which will liberate us and make us live happy life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Sin_BG_310-16\"><\/span>Sin (BG 3.10-16)<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As seen in the previous section, yajna refers to actions born out of nature which is regulated according to the scriptures. Various demigods are in charge of universal affairs and they have prescribed certain duties according to our nature. These duties are elaborately described in the 18th Chapter- actions performed by the 4 varnas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We all know that we must eat for survival. Saintly people offer everything to Krishna and honor the remnants. Krishna says in BG 3.13 that, if we eat simply to satisfy hunger without offering it to Krishna, then we are only eating sin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/learngitalivegita.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Krishna-Taking-Lunch-with-Gopas.jpg\" alt=\"Bhagavad Gita Chapter 3 Summary \u2013 Karma Yoga\" class=\"wp-image-1155\" width=\"540\" height=\"405\" srcset=\"https:\/\/learngitalivegita.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Krishna-Taking-Lunch-with-Gopas.jpg 720w, https:\/\/learngitalivegita.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Krishna-Taking-Lunch-with-Gopas-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 540px) 100vw, 540px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><em><em>yaj\u00f1a-\u015bi\u1e63\u1e6d\u0101\u015bina\u1e25 santo<br>mucyante sarva-kilbi\u1e63ai\u1e25<br>bhu\u00f1jate te tv agha\u1e41 p\u0101p\u0101<br>ye pacanty \u0101tma-k\u0101ra\u1e47\u0101t<\/em><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>Translation- <\/strong>The devotees of the Lord are released from all kinds of sins because they eat food that is offered first for sacrifice.
