Presented by
(God/Brahman working with Vatsa Sridatta)

'For a person who takes delight only in the self, is satisfied with the self and content in the self alone, verily there is no further work to be done by him'.
(Gita-3.17).

'For him in this world, there is no gain whatsoever, in the performance of an action or its non-performance, nor does he have any self-interest in other beings'. (Gita-3.18).

'Hari Om'

AMEN"

“God / Brahman Speaking To Anne Terri Through The Holy Spirit: If one looks at this the first time, it seems very self serving. Yet knowing that I Am Within - as the True Self - one needs to look from another perspective. For Anne to learn from this translation is difficult, for to be as such, perhaps one may want to live in a temple.

The alternate translation from the Srimad Bhagavad Gita - especially in line 3:18 - provided her with another way of looking at it.
In other words, if one seeks Me the True Self Who is the Ultimate Goal and they reach this Goal, then they need not depend on any one else.
They are then satisfied.

AMEN"

Alternate Translation - Srimad Bhagavad Gita Chapter 3:17-18

17. But the man who is devoted to the Self, and is satisfied with the Self, and content in the Self alone, he has no obligatory duty.

18. He has no object in this world (to gain) by doing (an action), nor (does he incur any loss) by non-performance of action,—nor has he (need of) depending on any being for any object.
