Work as No-Work

To attain liberation through work, join yourself to work but without desire, looking for no result. Such work leads to knowledge, which in turn brings emancipation. 

To give up work before you know, leads to misery. Work done for the Self gives no bondage. Neither desire pleasure nor fear pain from work. 
It is the mind and body that work, not I. Tell yourself this unceasingly and realise it. Try not to know that you work.
