Chapter 18<\/a><\/p>\n << Chapter 18 Verse 1<\/a><\/p>\n SrI bhagavAn uvAcha SrI bhagavAn uvAcha – bhagavAn SrI Krishna said bhagavAn SrI Krishna said – (Some) Learned persons say that the total abandonment of kAmya karmas which are done expecting certain results, is known as sanyAsam. Some other learned persons say that the abandonment of results of all karmas, is known as thyAgam.<\/p>\n ‘Learned men understand by Sanny\u0101sa, the abandonment of k\u0101mya<\/em>-works; (others) the wise, declare that Ty\u0101ga is the fruit-abandonment of all<\/em> works.’<\/span><\/p>\n Some learned men understand that Sanny\u0101sa is the abandonment of \u2014or abstention from\u2014 doing frugiferous<\/a> (=k\u0101mya<\/em>) actions. And some other wise men assert that in the authoritative works treating of Moksha, Ty\u0101ga means the resignation of the fruits<\/em> attached to all actions, whether they be of the kind of nitya<\/em> (daily duties), naimittika<\/em> (casual duties) or k\u0101mya<\/em> (specific acts prescribed for specific objects). The contention here is whether the tone of the \u015a\u0101stras (Authoritative Works) is for the abandonment of k\u0101mya<\/em> works alone or whether it is for the resignation of the fruits of all<\/em> kinds of works (nitya<\/em>, etc). In the former sense, the term Sanny\u0101sa was used, and in the latter Ty\u0101ga. In both cases what is common is \u2018renunciation,\u2019 (of something or other). In this sense both Ty\u0101ga and Sanny\u0101sa are identical. That they are used synonymously and to signify the same sense is evident from such passages also such as:<\/span><\/p>\n \u2018Hear from Me, O Best of Bharatas! the truth about this Ty\u0101ga\u2019 (Gi:<\/em> XVIII-4<\/a>), \u2014where Ty\u0101ga ultimately decides the question as meaning Renunciation (i.e., not abandonment of works, but doing them as duty and therefore abandoning fruits or returns therefor only); \u2014and other passages also such as:<\/span><\/p>\n \u2018The abandonment of obligatory work is improper. Its abandonment from misconception is declared to be T\u0101masa.\u2019 (Gi:<\/em> XVIII-7<\/a>).<\/span><\/p>\n \u2018Three-fold is the fruit of work, undesirable, desirable and mixed, which non-renouncers reap hereafter, and never the renouncers\u2019. (Gi:<\/em> XVIII-12<\/a>).<\/span><\/p>\n >> Chapter 18 Verse 3<\/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 18 << Chapter 18 Verse 1 SlOkam \u2013 Original SrI bhagavAn uvAcha kAmyAnAm karmaNAm nyAsam sanyAsam kavayO vidhu: | sarvakarmapalathyAgam prAhus thyAgam vichakshaNA: || word-by-word meaning SrI bhagavAn uvAcha – bhagavAn SrI Krishna said kavaya: – (Some) learned persons kAmyAnAm karmaNAm – of kAmya … Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[11,25],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-6663","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-chapter-18","category-simple"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/githa.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6663","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/githa.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/githa.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/githa.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/githa.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6663"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/githa.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6663\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":16463,"href":"https:\/\/githa.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6663\/revisions\/16463"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/githa.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6663"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/githa.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=6663"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/githa.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=6663"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}SlOkam \u2013 Original<\/a><\/h3>\n
