Chapter 3: Verse 24-25
उत्सीदेयुरिमे लोका न कुर्यां कर्म चेदहम्।
सङ्करस्य च कर्ता स्यामुपहन्यामिमाः प्रजाः॥३-२४॥
If I cease to act, these worlds would be ruined and I shall be (considered) the cause (agent) of people?s destruction as an admixture of races (one who has intermingled races).
Lesson: The role models have to perform action for developing healthy common practices and protecting public interest.
इसलिए यदि मैं कर्म न करूं तो ये सब मनुष्य नष्ट-भ्रष्ट हो जाए और मैं संकरताका करने वाला होऊं तथा इस समस्त प्रजा को नष्ट करने वाला बनूं। ॥२४॥

विषय: आसक्त एवं अनासक्त कर्म
सक्ताः कर्मण्यविद्वांसो यथा कुर्वन्ति भारत।
कुर्याद्विद्वांस्तथाऽसक्तश्चिकीर्षुर्लोकसंग्रहम्॥३-२५॥
As the ignorant act with attachment to work, O Bharata, so should the wise perform action without attachment being desirous of preventing people from going astray.
Lesson: Perform action in the larger interest of the people/society, with no attachment.
हे भारत! कर्म में आसक्त हुए अज्ञानीजन जिस प्रकार कर्म करते हैं, आसक्तिरहित विद्वान भी लोकसंग्रह करना चाहता हुआ उसी प्रकार कर्म करे। ॥२५॥
