These are the two paths upon which the Vedas are settled: the duties (Acts) indicated by action and those based on renunciation described so beautifully.By acts a living creature is destroyed. By knowledge, whoever, he becomes free. Therefore, Yogins, who see the other sides of the ocean of life, never perform acts.
द्वाविमावथ पन्थानौ यत्र वेदाः प्रतिष्ठिताः। प्रवृत्तिलक्षणो धर्मो निवृत्तौ च सुभाषितः॥ कर्मणा बध्यते जन्तुर्विद्यया तु प्रमुच्यते। तस्मात् कर्म न कुर्वन्ति यतयः पारदर्शिनः॥
