			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hinduism preaches salvation of the soul but it doesn&#8217;t ask you to be inactive. That is the feeling one gets when reading the famous verse of the Bhagavat Gita, which goes like this:</p>
<blockquote><p>
<em>&#8220;karmanyeva adhikaraste` maa phaleshu kadhaachana&#8221;</em> (You are entitled to do your karma (duty) unmindful of the result of your action since you have no control over that part)</p></blockquote>
<p>But in the same vein the Gita stresses on the performing action or Karma in the following line of the same verse &#8211; <em>maa they sanghotsva karmanee</em></p>
<p>So, Gita doesn&#8217;t advocate direction of your duty! Though it is not earthly possible to perform any act without focusing on corresponding fruits of your labor, you can still take a detached attitude so that you&#8217;ll not end up greatly disappointed when failure strikes!</p>
