To prevent any misunderstanding on Arjuna´s part, he is also adds: "Notthrough abstinence from actions will people enjoy…

One can not be without action, even for a second

admin Feb 28, 2006 83,416 0

The first statement: "The human being cannot be without action" has an exclusively theoretical character, serving as preparation for the second statement: "inactivity shouldn’t be the goal", which is of a practical nature and, as we will see further, it is addressed more to Easterners than Westerners.…
