Chapter 3 · The Yoga of Action (Karma Yoga)
Bhagavad Gita 3.5 Chapter 3, Verse 5
न हि कश्चित्क्षणमपि जातु तिष्ठत्यकर्मकृत् ।
कार्यते ह्यवशः कर्म सर्वः प्रकृतिजैर्गुणैः ॥३.५॥
na hi kaścitkṣaṇamapi jātu tiṣṭhatyakarmakṛt
kāryate hyavaśaḥ karma sarvaḥ prakṛtijairguṇaiḥ
Meaning
No one can remain without action even for a moment, for everyone is driven helplessly to act by the qualities born of nature.
