Chapter 3: Karm Yog
iṣhṭān bhogān hi vo devā dāsyante yajña-bhāvitāḥ
tair dattān apradāyaibhyo yo bhuṅkte stena eva saḥ || 12||

My Understanding : Performing good deeds and offering poojas (rituals) will make the gods happy, and in return, they will bless us with rain, crops, and all the resources necessary for human survival. It is our responsibility to live in harmony with Mother Nature, recognizing that we are merely using its gifts to sustain life on earth. We should never feel entitled to these resources as if they belong to us. Instead, we must purify our souls and bodies by engaging in activities that connect us with the divine.
