Srimathe Narayanaya Namaha Dear Sri Murali, AdiyEn would like to clarify your doubts on my statement. If you go thro' my earlier lines, please note that adiyEn had clearly written that it is the thoughts that should be sacrificed.The point to note here is, the great bhAgavathA was never thinking that he is doing the karma (kartrutvam), it is his job to clean the temple i.e the work is his (karmam), and the fruit for doing so is mOksham (phalam). Again to consolidate, I am no authority to dispute anything that our Swami EmberumAnAr says. I agree that Krishna never said to renounce the Nitya Karmas, but the thougts takes more importance, in that, we should NOT THINK that a karma is being done by us, we should NOT THINK we are responsible for that karma and we should NOT THINK that the phalam for that karma is ours. All this because we know that Sriman Narayanan is THE ONLY SiddhOpAyam and sAdhyOpAyam Hence we need not renounce our Nitya KarmAs. But the case here regarding the exalted souls is different. AdiyEn shall present the views after consulting some scholars near my residence with real pramANAs.
