About
Karma Actions performed as per Dharma, guided by śāstra and right values. They purify the mind and lead to harmony and growth. Vikarma Actions done against Dharma—driven by desire, anger, greed, or ego. They create bondage and suffering. Akarma Action performed without ego and expectation of results— outer action, inner renunciation. Here, even while acting, one is not bound by action. 👉 The Gītā teaches: act (Karma), avoid prohibited action (Vikarma), and grow into actionless action (Akarma). If you like, Igo one-line Gītā reference (4.16–18) for this day’s note.
