The Path of Action
न बुद्धिभेदं जनयेदज्ञानां कर्मसङ्गिनाम्। जोषयेत्सर्वकर्माणि विद्वान् युक्तः समाचरन्
na buddhi-bhedaṁ janayed ajñānāṁ karma-saṅginām joṣhayet sarva-karmāṇi vidvān yuktaḥ samācharan
A wise person should not unsettle the minds of the ignorant who are attached to action; rather, remaining steadfast and properly performing all actions himself, he should encourage them to do the same.
na—not · buddhi-bhedam—discord in the intellects · janayet—should create · ajñānām—of the ignorant · karma-saṅginām—who are attached to fruitive actions · joṣhayet—should inspire (them) to perform · sarva—all · karmāṇi—prescribed · vidvān—the wise · yuktaḥ—enlightened · samācharan—performing properly
