The Big Investing Lesson from theBhagavad Gita Karmanye vadhikaraste, ma phaleshou kada chana. Ma karma phala hetur bhurmatey sangostva akarmani. —Bhagavad Gita In this verse from the Bhagavad Gita, Lord Krishna explains to Arjuna that he must perform his duties, as the latter was unwilling to fight the Mahabharata war. Translated, it reads: You have the right to perform your actions, but you are not entitled to the fruits of the actions. Do not let the fruit be the purpose of your actions, and therefore you won’t be attached to not doing your duty.
