In the fourth discourse, Krishna speaks about the yoga of knowledge. He imparts the wisdom that renouncing the attachment to the result of action is proper. In action through inaction (acting without attachment), one can do their duty, regardless of caste. Through the knowledge of action in inaction, one can follow the path towards righteousness and become free from the pain of rebirth. That is my takeaway.

The fifth discourse of the Bhagavad Gita emphasizes the importance of action with detachment from its result. Arjuna is called to complete his duty with indifference to what it may cause others. Although his duty may seem cruel, by acting it out without thinking outwardly, he can live in peace despite the actions he must take. I enjoyed this discourse and find Krishna’s teachings to be very wise.

The third discourse of the Bhagavad Gita describes the yoga of action. Krishna explains to Arjuna that performing one’s duty in action is necessary, regardless of the result of that action. Trust in Krishna and perform one’s duties, allowing yourself to be detached from its result. This is the right path one should take, even if their duty seems cruel. That is my takeaway from this discourse. I overall enjoyed it
