Commentary
Sri Krishna warns here that those who are obstinate in finding fault with His teachings without practicing them are doomed for destruction. Such people will be more and more deluded and will lose their discrimination.
Karma Yoga is a way of life and one has to live it if one wants to receive His grace. The path of work is a process of elimination of desires in us. When egoism and egocentric desires are eliminated the work done through such pure mind is a divine action which will have enduring achievements. To the extent an individual does not practice this efficient way of work he loses his discriminative capacity and ultimately will meet his destruction.
ACTION IS DRIVEN BY ONE’S OWN NATURE
