Origin & History
Source: Bhagavad Gita Chapter 3, Verse 19
Author: Sage Veda Vyasa (Mahabharata, Bhishma Parva)
In the third chapter, Karma Yoga, Arjuna asks why he must act at all if knowledge is superior. Krishna explains that no one can remain actionless even for a moment, and that the wise act for the welfare of the world. This verse is the culmination of that teaching: perform your duty constantly but without attachment, for selfless action itself leads to the highest goal.
