Sanskrit
न कर्तृत्वं न कर्माणि लोकस्य सृजति प्रभुः। न कर्मफलसंयोगं स्वभावस्तु प्रवर्तते।।5.14।।
Transliteration
na kartṛitvaṁ na karmāṇi lokasya sṛijati prabhuḥ na karma-phala-saṅyogaṁ svabhāvas tu pravartate
Word by Word
The Lord does not create doership or actions in the world—He is the eternal witness, untouched by the machinery of karma. It is prakriti, our own nature and conditioning, that moves us into action and binds us to results.
When you realize this deeply, you stop blaming God for your suffering and stop claiming credit for your victories; you simply become the conscious instrument of your own unfolding dharma. In modern life, this means releasing the exhausting illusion that you must control outcomes—tend to your duty with full presence, and let the results belong to the universe.
