Transliteration

yat karoṣhi yad aśhnāsi yaj juhoṣhi dadāsi yat yat tapasyasi kaunteya tat kuruṣhva mad-arpaṇam

Word by Word

yat whatever
karoṣhi you do
yat whatever
aśhnāsi you eat
yat whatever
juhoṣhi offer to the sacred fire
dadāsi bestow as a gift
yat whatever
yat whatever
tapasyasi austerities you perform
kaunteya Arjun, the son of Kunti
tat them
kuruṣhva do
mad arpaṇam as an offering to me
Simplified Perspective

Krishna reveals the ultimate secret of liberation: every action becomes worship when offered to the Divine with a sincere heart. This is not renunciation of life, but transfiguration of it—your eating becomes sacrament, your work becomes prayer, your struggles become offerings.

When you align your daily existence with this consciousness of surrender, the ego's burden dissolves and you discover that God has been receiving your life all along.
