The relationship between karma and karma-yoga should be properly understood. Ordinary karma (action) done with attachment or desires causes bondage. But the same action, when performed desirelessly, with selflessness, becomeskarma-yoga. Our life should become a yoga (Divine Communion) rather than a 'roga' (disease). Today most of our actions result in roga because they are related to sensuous pleasures. Freedom from this disease can be obtained by pursuing the spiritual path. Spiritual path does not consist merely in singing bhajans or reciting hymns. These are good deeds. Only actions performed as a complete offering to the Divine can be regarded as spiritual. The individual who is in a state of ignorance about the Self is like the bud of a flower that has not yet bloomed. When the flower blossoms, it sheds its fragrance all round. Likewise the person who has realised the Divinity within oneself becomes a source of light and strength!
