No one can remain even for a moment without activity, but usually actions that lead to complications and misery. Swami Paramananda explains what right action is and how it can solve our problems.
The less passion there is, the better we work. The calmer we are, the better for us and the more the amount of work we can do. When we let loose our feelings, we waste so much energy, shatter our nerves, disturb our minds, and accomplish very little work.
-Swami Vivekananda
