The Art of Right Action

So, today, act with clarity,
Love without attachment,
And serve without expectation.

At the dawn of purpose, when the heart hesitates between doing and being,
A quiet voice within whispers:
“Act, but do not cling. Work, but do not weave chains with your work.”

The mind desires results,
But wisdom smiles, knowing that the result was never yours,
For even the doer is but an instrument
In the grand rhythm of the Infinite.

Arjuna stands within each of us,
Torn between confusion and duty,
Tetween the weight of emotion and the call of truth.

And Krishna’s voice still echoes across the ages:
“Your right is to action alone, never to its fruits.”

To act without bondage is not to be passive,
But to act from freedom,
Where every gesture becomes sacred,
Where effort and surrender meet.

The wise do not escape the world;
They transcend it through understanding.
They turn work into worship,
And responsibility into remembrance.

When the heart is pure,
The battlefield becomes the temple,
And every action becomes a prayer in motion.

So, today, act with clarity,
Love without attachment,
And serve without expectation.

Let your hands move, but your heart rest,
For the Self neither acts nor refrains.
It simply shines,
Silent, full, and free.
