So our only request is that if you want happiness, if you want to
prosper, make your life successful, you must read Bhagavad-gita
thoroughly, as it is, as Krsna says. Don’t try to misinterpret.
2. Bg 11.55 P As far as work is concerned, one should transfer his energy
entirely to Krsna conscious activities. No work should be done by any
3. Bg 3.9 Work done as a sacrifice for Visnu has to be performed, otherwise
work binds one to this material world. …This practice will not only save one from the reaction of work,
but will also gradually elevate one to transcendental loving service of the Lord, which alone can raise one to the kingdom of God.
4. Bg 3.15 P The Vedas are therefore codes of working directions. Anything performed without the direction of the Vedas is called vikarma, or unauthorized or sinful work
5. Bg 4.20 This freedom from the bondage of actions is possible only in Krsna consciousness when one is doing everything for Krsna
6. NOD …Sanat-kumara says, “My dear King, the false ego of a human being is so strong that it keeps him in material existence as if tied up by a strong rope. Only the devotees can cut off the knot of this strong rope very easily, by engaging themselves in Krsna consciousness…This tight knot of false ego is due to ignorance. As long as one is ignorant about his identity, he is sure to act wrongly and thereby
become entangled in material contamination..
7. Bg 4.17 P If one is serious about liberation from material bondage, one has
to understand the distinctions between action, inaction and unauthorized actions. The entire Bhagavad-gita is directed toward this conclusion. Any other conclusions, against this consciousness and
its attendant reactions, are vikarmas, or prohibited actions.
