GITA 3 KARMA YOGA
Karma means work. Yoga means doing that
thing without attachment.
We cannot live without karma.
Even if we are sitting idle, saying that I
am not doing any work, that means internal parts of the body, mind, all are
still working.

Whatever work that is done by great
people, the common people too follow that.
Whatever things they take as standard, the
common people too take it as standard.
It takes a lot of time, efforts, pains,
struggle, vision, sacrificing nature, and lot more to a common man to become a
great man.
The great man may be sometimes during his
life time, or after his death.

Gandhiji:
1. In his beginning stage,
nobody cared to attend his meetings. After his success at Champaran and Ahmadabad
then only he became great. Then he could lead India towards independence from
the British.

His way of life, his standards towards
life, his self discipline, all are followed and imbibed by the people.

his food habits, living style, conducted Bhoodanodyamam and distributed
10,00,000 acres of land to the poor and the needy.

him their leader and blindly followed his word. There was no other say to his
decision.

heart of the people.

Kapilvastu after Suddhodhana. He never cared for those luxuries. He was in

We hand their photos in our houses.
We explain about these people to our of kin.
