Sacrifice that Which you don’t give to Anybody


It is always great to give God that which you cannot give to anybody. What is the greatness in giving that which you can give to anyone? It is very difficult to sacrifice the fruit of work (money). Therefore the greatness lies in sacrificing work or the fruit of work. The Gita emphasized on Karma Phala Tyaga in view of the nearing Kali Yuga. Soon after the Mahabharata war, Kali entered. Since the Lord knows that in the Kali age, money, which is the fruit of the work, is going to be the topmost item, He taught us the sacrifice of money (Karma Phala Tyaga) for His service in the Gita. There are three Eshanas which are very strong bonds:

1) Bond with money
2) Bond with wife or husband
3) Bond with children.

We should not be very poor in the sacrifice of the fruit of our work for the service of spreading the Lord's Holy Names and Glories, which is important in our spiritual effort to reach God.
