Gita - Chapter III

In Chapter III of Bhagavad Gita , the lord exposes to the twofold path of divine realization.
1. Sankya - Jyana Yoga - Realizing the supereme by the means of Knowledge
2. Karma Yoga - Divine appreciation in all our work.

It was Krishna who had manifested these paths at the start of the universe. Path of Sankya will not be possible for everyone. Very few have followed this path to attain self realization. Sri Aurobindo is one such great soul who had followed Jnaya yoga to understand the divinity within. Sri Krishna iterates the importance of Karma in this chapter.

All of us have been sent to this world with a divine purpose. We cannot escape this purpose calling ourself renounciates. We have to perform our duties in this earth with dedication. The primary thing to be understood in the context of our duties is that, its Krisha who is the doer, Krishna who is the object of doing and its Only Krishna alone who reaps the benefits of it. We have to be indifferent to the success or failure of our karma. Never rejoice nor repent.
Always perform every duty in our day today life to please Krishna.
