Bhagavad Gita Chapter 3, Shloka 5
न हि कश्चित्क्षणमपि जातु तिष्ठत्यकर्मकृत् |
कार्यते ह्यवश: कर्म सर्व: प्रकृतिजैर्गुणै: ||
na hi kaśhchit kṣhaṇam api jātu tiṣhṭhaty akarma-kṛit |
kāryate hy avaśhaḥ karma sarvaḥ prakṛiti-jair guṇaiḥ ||
Translation:
Indeed, no one can ever remain without performing action, even for a moment. Everyone is forced to act helplessly according to the qualities born of material nature."
Explanation: In this shloka, Lord Krishna explains the inevitability of action. He states that it is impossible for anyone to remain completely inactive, even for a moment. This is because all beings are compelled to act according to the qualities (gunas) inherent in their nature (prakriti).
