Srimad Bhagavad Gita -Ramanujacharya
Chapter-18 Mokṣa Sannyāsa Yogaḥ
śrī bhagavān uvāca CommentarySome scholars understand that Sannyāsa is complete abandonment of acts done with a motive for rewards (Kāmya Karma), others opine that the meaning of the term Tyāga, used in reference to Liberation, means the relinquishment of the results not only of all desiderative acts (Kāmya), but also of obligatory (Nitya) and periodic (Naimittika) duties. Here the problem is, whether the relinquishment Tyāga taught in the Scriptures concerns only the desiderative acts themselves, or is inclusive of all works. Sri Krishna uses the terms Sannyāsa and Tyāga interchangeably — from this it is concluded that He considers the terms Tyāga and Sannyāsa as synonyms. |
