Chapter 18 · Moksha Sanyasa Yoga
Two Kinds of Letting Go · Acting Without Grasping
Meaning
"The Supreme Lord said: The wise understand sannyasa as giving up desire-driven actions, while the learned call tyaga the relinquishing of the fruits of all actions."
Explanation
Krishna makes a careful distinction here — you don't necessarily have to stop doing things to grow spiritually; you can keep acting, just release your grip on what it earns you.
Today's Life Lesson
You don't have to stop doing things today to grow — just practice releasing your grip on what the outcome gives you.
