None can remain without work even for a moment, says the Gita. How true! Man's whole life is a saga of work done, consciously or unconsciously, toward satisfying different ends. Is he then merely a slave, a fleshy machine only to be on the run without any respite, chased, as it were, by the demon of desires and circumstances? Can he turn the tables and become the Master himself and make work his subordinate, a servant? Yes! In this small booklet the readers will find the secret of work which will help them work like masters and not like slaves.
Learn to feel yourself in other bodies, to know that we are all one. Throw all other nonsense to the winds. Spit out your actions, good or bad, and never think of them again. What is done is done. Throw off superstition. Have no weakness even in the face of death. Do not repent, do not brood over past deeds. Be aazaad (free).
-Swami Vivekananda
