Do your duty; leave the rest to God.

You can hold fast to God either through Jnana, Bhakti or Karma maarga (paths of knowledge, worship or work). You may travel first, second or third class in the train; the destination is the same. Jnana proceeds on the assumption that God is immanent and transcendent. Bhakti believes that God is Creator, Preserver and Destroyer, that He is to be adored, and propitiated by deeds that He appreciates, that God is Master and you are privileged to serve. Karma takes into account a third category - Nature! Man has to utilise Nature, live in Nature, live by Nature, always dedicating one’s activity to the further Glory of God, resigning oneself to the worshipful activity, unconcerned with the fruits of the activity, for they are in the hands of God. The three colours - Jnana, Bhakti and Karma are different only when the white light of God passes through the prism of human reason and mind. Activate them in deed, they are but parts of one ray.
