Chapter-3
Karmayoga
22. I have no task to perform, O Partha, whatsoever in the three worlds; nor have I anything to gain which I do not have. Still I continue to work. But, O Partha, why talk about others? Look to me, I too remain in the path of action (156160). If you think that I perform my duty to avoid some calamity, or because I have to satisfy some desire of mine, you know that there is none else who is as perfect as myself, and that I have all the necessary means at my beck and call. I restored the dead son of my Guru Sandipani; and you were a witness to my prowess. Though I have no desire of my own, I remain active. 23. If I did not continue unflaggingly in work at all, men all around, O Partha, will follow my path. As for myself, I do my duty as a person having desire does; but this I do only with one specific aim in view. It is this that all beings who depend upon me, do not go astray (161-165).
