The Bhagavad Gita explains the concept of Karma. Karma Yoga which is 3rd chapter in geeta is described as a way of acting, thinking and willing by which one orients oneself toward realization by acting in accordance with one’s duty (dharma) without consideration of personal self-centered desires, likes or dislikes. Acting without being attached to the fruits of one’s deeds. Lord Krishna says in geeta slokas : “Work incessantly.Your duty is to work but not to expect the fruits thereof.”
