Q: Bhagavad Gita says, just do your duty and don’t look for the fruits of your action. How do we achieve this?

Guruji: Doing your duty is like planting a seed. It may sprout, grow, give flowers and fruits. But if you keep digging up and checking whether the roots are growing and the shoots are growing, then will it grow? It can never grow.

That is why it is said, don't worry about the fruits right now. It will give results in its own time.

Right now, all that you should do is plant the seed, water it and wait patiently till it grows, flowers and bears fruits. If you plant a mango seed, will you get mangoes immediately? You will only get it in due course of time. So the Bhagavad Gita says that, don’t look for the rewards, just do your duty right now.

God is a Thorough Businessman

The Divine has given you all the small pleasures in the world, but has kept the bliss to Himself. To get the highest bliss you have to go to Him and Him alone.

Don't be too smart with the Divine and try to fool Him. Most of your prayers and rituals are just attempts to trick the Divine. You try to give the least and get the maximum out of the Divine and He knows. He's an astute businessman; He will trick you even more. If you go underneath the carpet, He will go underneath the floor.

Be sincere in your attempts. Do not try to outsmart the Divine. Once you get the bliss, then everything else is joyful. Without the bliss, joy in anything in the world will not stay.
