GITA WISDOM # 51
दुःखमित्येव यत्कर्म कायक्लेशभयात्त्यजेत्।
स कृत्वा राजसं त्यागं नैव त्यागफलं लभेत्॥
Actions involve efforts. If somebody wants to give up the duties due to the efforts needed, he performs a negative sacrifice. He is a hypocrite. It shall not be deemed to be an elevated path of righteousness. (18.8)
जो कुछ कर्म है वह सब दुःखरूप ही है- ऐसा समझकर यदि कोई शारीरिक क्लेश के भय से कर्तव्य-कर्मों का त्याग कर दे, तो वह ऐसा राजस त्याग करके त्याग के फल को किसी प्रकार भी नहीं पाता
॥8॥
Actions involve efforts. If somebody wants to give up the duties due to the efforts needed, he performs a negative sacrifice. He is a hypocrite. It shall not be deemed to be an elevated path of righteousness. (18.8)
Have a great day…
B +Ve!! 
Wishing you a wonderful holiday and bright new year, Debasis. May your efforts feel effortless. 🙂

Okay–thank you! even though regulars know I quote from the Bible, I find it best to at least mention the book (example James), then chapter and verse…one never knows who will be reading it!
