Tap a word to reveal its meaning. Say each one aloud as you go.

In English

But a wise man should not disturb the minds of the ignorant, who are attached to action; let him perform his own actions in the right spirit, with concentration on Me, thus inspiring all others to do the same.

Translated by Shri Purohit Swami

Let no wise man unsettle the minds of ignorant people who are attached to action; he should engage them in all actions, himself fulfilling them with devotion.

Translated by Swami Sivananda

Test yourself
