Context:
यज्ञदानतपःकर्म न त्याज्यं कार्यमेव तत्।
यज्ञो दानं तपश्चैव पावनानि मनीषिणाम् ॥
The work of Yajña, gift, and austerity should not be relinquished, but it should indeed be performed; (for) Yajña, gift, and austerity are purifying to the wise.
~Shrimad Bhagavad Gita (Chapter-18, Verse-5)
एतान्यपि तु कर्माणि सङ्गं त्यक्त्वा फलानि च।
कर्तव्यानीति मे पार्थ निश्चितं मतमुत्तमम् ॥
But even these works, O Pārtha should be performed, leaving attachment and the fruits, such is My best and certain conviction.
~Shrimad Bhagavad Gita (Chapter-18, Verse-6)
नियतस्य तु संन्यासः कर्मणो नोपपद्यते।
मोहात्तस्य परित्यागस्तामसः परिकीर्तितः ॥
But the renunciation of obligatory action is not proper. Abandonment of the same from delusion is declared to be Tamasika.
~Shrimad Bhagavad Gita (Chapter-18, Verse-7)
दुःखमित्येव यत्कर्म कायक्लेशभयात्त्यजेत्।
स कृत्वा राजसं त्यागं नैव त्यागफलं लभेत् ॥
He who from fear of bodily trouble relinquishes action, because it is painful, thus performing a Rājasika relinquishment, he obtains not the fruit thereof.
~Shrimad Bhagavad Gita (Chapter-18, Verse-8)
कार्यमित्येव यत्कर्म नियतं क्रियतेऽर्जुन ।
सङ्गं त्यक्त्वा फलं चैव स त्यागः सात्त्विको मतः ॥
When obligatory work is performed, O Arjuna, only because it ought to be done, leaving attachment and fruit, such relinquishment is regarded as Sättvika.
~Shrimad Bhagavad Gita (Chapter-18, Verse-9)
~ Which actions must one never renounce?
~ What is meant by obligatory actions?
~ What is our destined action?
~ How to perform action without attachment from fruit?
~ What is that we are moving towards in life?

🌌LEARNINGS🌌
🌺 Shri Krishna says, "niyat karm" not nirdharit karma,
📌 You're being advised to do that where your destiny has anyway preordinate,,
🌸 Destiny is the end,. destiny is the final points for the sake of which we all exists and keep moving,
🍂 Destination - the end, the summit, the total fulfillment, all these points towards destiny,
🌙 We keep wanting but what is the ultimate want?
⚡destined action:- that brings you to the destiny and it can bring you to the destiny only when action is guided by destiny,
☘️ If your destiny is freedom then you have to act in a way that negates your bonds that is niyat karma,
💧 All that you owed to yourself is freedom,
🎗️ Your only obligation is to reach the destination,
🌟 To go to your destination your internal compass has to be allign in a different way and different field,
☄️ Niyat karma is very lightly and dynamic thing,
🍁 You have to ask yourself every action, every movement I'm taking is going to the Ego?
❄️ Keep asking what is the net result of the entire day is?
🎐 Niyat karma is not that which elders decided for you,
🌸 Niyat karma is act rightly.
