Dnyaneshwari Ch. 4, Verse 155

तैसे कर्म तरी कीजे । परि कर्तेपण न भजिजे । मग तेणें न बाधिजे । संन्यासी जैसा ॥

"Perform actions in that manner, but do not embrace the sense of doership; then you shall not be bound by them, just like a Sannyasi."

तैसे Adverb

Taise

त्याप्रमाणे

In that manner

कर्म Noun

Karma

कार्य किंवा कर्तव्य

Action or duty

कर्तेपण Noun

Kartepan

Sense of doership

भजिजे Verb

Bhajije

स्वीकारणे किंवा धरणे

To embrace or hold

बाधिजे Verb

Badhije

अडकणे किंवा बंधन होणे

To be bound or affected

संन्यासी Noun

Sannyasi

विरक्त किंवा त्यागी पुरुष

Renunciant

💡 Meaning

Perform your actions in that manner, but do not harbor the ego of being the doer; then you will not be bound by those actions, just like a Sannyasi.

🔍 Deep Interpretation

Saint Dnyaneshwar explains the essence of selfless action. He suggests that one should perform their duties diligently but without the ego of being the 'doer'. When the sense of agency is removed, the action does not create karmic debt. Just as a true Sannyasi remains detached despite performing actions in the world, a seeker should remain unattached to the results and the ego of action to achieve liberation.

🎯 Practical Application

In daily life, while working or studying, instead of thinking 'I am doing this,' focus on 'This is my duty.' For example, a doctor treats a patient as a duty without getting emotionally entangled in the outcome, thus maintaining mental peace regardless of the result.

📌 Context

Shri Krishna explains to Arjuna how to perform actions without being bound by their consequences by relinquishing the ego of doership.

Dnyaneshwari Ch. 2, Verse 284

यावानर्थ उदपाने सर्वतः सम्प्लुतोदके । तावान्सर्वेषु वेदेषु ब्राह्मणस्य विजानतः ॥

💡 Meaning

Just as a large lake fulfills all needs for water, the firm conviction of a wise person fulfills all purposes of life.

🔍 Deep Interpretation

In this verse, Saint Dnyaneshwar provides a commentary on Bhagavad Gita 2.46. He explains that just as a large, overflowing reservoir of water serves all the purposes that various small wells might serve (like drinking, washing, or irrigation), the realization of the Self (Atman) encompasses all the benefits described in the Vedas. For a person who has attained the ultimate truth, specific rituals and minor material gains become redundant because they have found the source of all existence and joy.

🎯 Practical Application

Focusing on the core essence of any task makes peripheral details fall into place. Example: If you master the fundamental principles of a subject, you don't need to memorize every single detail separately because the core knowledge covers everything.

📌 Context

Dnyaneshwar Maharaj explains the state of a person who has attained self-realization, comparing their holistic understanding to a vast reservoir that makes smaller wells redundant.

Dnyaneshwari Ch. 4, Verse 69

तरी उचित कर्म सांडावें । कीं निषिद्ध तें आचरावें । हें कांहींच न लागावें । तयासी पैं ॥ ६९ ॥

उचित Adjective

Proper or prescribed

तयासी Pronoun

Tayasi

त्याला (ज्ञानी पुरुषाला)

To him (the realized soul)

💡 Meaning

For a realized soul, there is no obligation to either perform prescribed duties or avoid forbidden ones, as they transcend the laws of karma.

🔍 Deep Interpretation

In this verse, Saint Dnyaneshwar explains that for a person who has realized the ultimate truth, the dualities of 'proper' and 'forbidden' actions cease to exist. Since their ego (the sense of being the doer) is dissolved in the Self, they are not bound by social or religious obligations in the same way an ignorant person is. Their actions are spontaneous and free from the bondage of cause and effect.

🎯 Practical Application

In daily life, perform your duties without attachment to the results. Example: A teacher teaching students with dedication without worrying about personal fame or reward.

📌 Context

Saint Dnyaneshwar describes the state of a person who has attained self-realization and is no longer bound by the rules of karma.
