SHRIMAD BHAGWAT GITA

Arjuna: O Krishna, you have recommended both the path of selfless action and sannyasa, the path of renunciation of action. Tell me definitely which is better.

Sri Krishna: Both renunciation of action and the selfless performance of action lead to the supreme goal. But the path of action is better than renunciation.

Those who have attained perfect renunciation are free from any sense of duality; they are unaffected by likes and dislikes, Arjuna, and are free from the bondage of self-will.
