Perform your obligatory duty, because action is indeed better than inaction.

Even the wise are confused about what is action and what is inaction.

Even the wise are confused about what is action and what is inaction. Therefore, I shall clearly explain what is action, knowing that one shall be liberated from the evil (of birth and death).

The one who sees inaction in action, and action in inaction, is a wise person.

A man who sees action in inaction and inaction in action has understanding among men and discipline in all action he performs.

It is better to do one's own duty, however defective it may be, than to follow the duty of another, however well one may perform it. He who does his duty as his own nature reveals it, never sins.
