TRANSLATION
A man
engaged in devotional service rids himself of both good and bad actions even in
this life. Therefore strive for yoga, O Arjuna, which is the art of all work.
PURPORT
Since
time immemorial each living entity has accumulated the various reactions of his
good and bad work. As such, he is continuously ignorant of his real
constitutional position. One's ignorance can be removed by the instruction of
the Bhagavad-gita which
teaches one to surrender unto Lord Sri Krsna in all respects and become
liberated from the chained victimization of action and reaction, birth after
birth. Arjuna is therefore advised to act in Krsna consciousness, the purifying
process of resultant action.
