Even if you are still unable to engage in offering devotion to Me, renunciate from the rewards of the fruitful actions by being self restraint.

Those born under the Makara Rasi will excel in self-discipline. The Uttiradam Nakshatra provides them with a stable mindset. The Shani Graha has the power to enhance their career and financial status. According to Chapter 12, Verse 11 of the Bhagavad Gita, they should act in their profession without expecting rewards. This allows them to maintain a calm state of mind. In family welfare, they can strengthen relationships by acting selflessly. In business, they will progress through hard work, but they must renounce the rewards. Their financial situation will improve with the support of the Shani Graha, but they should renounce the fruits obtained from it. By acting in this manner, they can achieve mental satisfaction and live a simple life, leading to a happy life with their family.
This verse is spoken by Lord Krishna to Arjuna. He teaches that if one cannot engage in devotion, they should relinquish the fruits that come to them. While devotion is a noble path, those who cannot follow it should cultivate self-discipline. By following beneficial actions and renouncing the fruits obtained from them, one can lead a simple life. Love, affection, and self-control sharpen emotions. A life without devotion and a life without selfishness are said to be the same. This leads to mental satisfaction.
After Vinayaka, destruction is natural; when one relinquishes the results of every action concerning it, the inner strength of a person is revealed. For a person without devotion, it is essential to act with self-control. By acting through such virtues and renouncing their fruits, one achieves what is described in Vedanta as aimlessness or Nishkama Karma. Nishkama Karma is the practice of acting without expecting any rewards. This brings peace to the mind and spiritual growth. The 'Bharatam,' known as Gunatheedam, provides us with such teachings.
In today's context, our lives are filled with various pressures. Devices like mobile phones and televisions can consume a lot of time in family welfare. The urgency to earn more money in business has increased. To live a long life, good dietary habits are essential. It is necessary to act with a sense of responsibility towards parents and others. Debts and EMIs weigh heavily on us. We should avoid spending excessive time on social media and cultivate healthy habits. In the long run, we can perform our actions selflessly. Renouncing the fruits of actions and living simply brings us peace and tranquility. This improves our mental state and strengthens our relationships.
