He who (so) contemplates karma (work) to be Brahma-full, goeth to Brahma Itself[1. This is the highest contemplation in Spiritual Philosophy. It is the ultimate view of all work. This is tantamount to seeing God everywhere, in all acts by oneself, and acts seen by him external to himself. This is a spiritual height, that only saints of the stamp of Prahl\u0101da and Namm\u0101\u1e37v\u0101r scaled.].’<\/span><\/p>\n Brahm\u0101rpa\u1e47a<\/em> is adjectival to (Brahma<\/em>)-havi\u1e25<\/em>. That by which an oblation is offered is arpa\u1e47a<\/em>, viz<\/em>., the yaj\u00f1a-apparatus, ladle etc., (The ladle etc., are accessories or instruments by which havi\u1e25<\/em>, oblations \u2014food etc.\u2014 are offered into the fire, in yaj\u00f1a-ceremonies). Being an effect (or created thing), it (the ladle etc) is Brahma<\/em>. That Brahma<\/em> which is the instrumental accessory (arpa\u1e47a<\/em>) to oblation (food etc), is Brahm\u0101rpa\u1e47a<\/em>. By this Brahm\u0101rpa\u1e47a<\/em>, the oblation (Brahma-havi\u1e25<\/em>), which is again Brahma<\/em>, is offered by the performer (or offerer) \u2014who is Brahma<\/em> again\u2014, into Brahma-fire<\/em>, or fire which is Brahma<\/em>.<\/span><\/p>\n Whoso thus contemplates Brahm to be abidant in all acts, \u2014(this realization of Brahm in every act is sam\u0101dhi<\/em>), \u2014 which is called Brahma-karma-sam\u0101dhi<\/em>\u2014, he reaches Brahm itself. Reaching Brahm is the realizing of the Brahma-like \u0101tm\u0101-nature.<\/span><\/p>\n So that, the work that the moksha-aspirant does is by him contemplated as Brahma-ensouled work, or in other words, that the Soul of all work is Brahm. Work, in this view, becomes itself wisdom, and, precluding a distinct course of j\u00f1\u0101na, is itself the means to achieve \u0101tm\u0101-vision.<\/span><\/p>\n Having now demonstrated how work (karma) may be viewed in the aspect of wisdom (j\u00f1\u0101na), the varieties of Karma-yoga<\/em> are now mentioned:\u2014<\/span><\/p>\n >> Chapter 4 verse 24.5<\/a><\/p>\n archived in https:\/\/githa.koyil.org<\/a><\/p>\n pramEyam (goal) \u2013 http:\/\/koyil.org<\/a> SrI:\u00a0 SrImathE SatakOpAya nama:\u00a0 SrImathE rAmAnujAya nama:\u00a0 SrImath varavaramunayE nama: Chapter 4 << Chapter 4 verse 23 Simple brahm\u0101rpa\u1e47a\u1e41 brahma havir brahm\u0101gnau brahma\u1e47\u0101 hutam brahmaiva tena gantavya\u1e41 brahma-karma-sam\u0101dhin\u0101 ‘By Brahma-apparatus, the Brahma-oblation is, by Brahma, offered in Brahma-fire.
