“Even if you try not to do your duty you will be perforce obliged to do it. Let the body complete the task for which it came into being. Sri Krishna also says in the Gita, whether Arjuna liked it or not, he would be forced to fight. When there is work to be done by you, you cannot keep away; nor can you continue to do a thing when you are not required to do it, that is to say, when the work allotted to you has been done. In short, the work will go on and you must take your share in it—the share which is allotted to you.”
[Question: How can it be done?]
“Like an actor playing his part in a drama: free from duality.”
~ Bhagavan Sri Ramana Maharshi
