Do not expect the rewards, the fruit. Feel always that God is working through your body, and also through others'. Work is inevitable. Everything in this world is active. So are you, too. But there is nothing worth boasting about in this. You are active and you work only because it is His Will. It is your duty to get into the train; when it will reach the destination, God knows. You have no need to know; His Will be done. If you do not desire anything, if you do not expect anything, there can be no failure, no disappointment, no unhappiness, for you will accept everything as His Will.

But there is nothing worth boasting about in this. You are active and you work only because it is His Will. It is your duty to get into the train; when it will reach the destination, God knows. You have no need to know; His Will be done. If you do not desire anything, if you do not expect anything, there can be no failure, no disappointment, no unhappiness, for you will accept everything as His Will. You will always enjoy happiness and pleasure. This does not mean we are to make no appointments or programmes. But, having made them, as part of our duty, we should inwardly feel, 'His Will be done', and be ever prepared for anything. We shall not grieve. People are miserable because they wait for rewards of their work. "I must study well and sit for the examination, because it is His Will". Well, it is God's Will; and, will you not put your heart and soul in doing a job which God wills you to do? You should! For, thus will you come nearer God. You will be happy, merely by doing your duty. Your happiness will not depend on others. That is when we can really be happy. Be ambitious by all means; but to do His Will. Have this one desire alone: take an intense delight in the work you do, not because you are going to get something out of it, but because it is God's Will. You can never be unhappy, this is Sri Krishna's definite promise. You will be constantly thinking of God, at the same time. Soon, you will realize Him, and directly know His Will and do it. This is the greatest yoga.~ Bhagwat Geeta
