![There is No Yagna Without Yoga](https://cdn.magzter.com/1397548729/1667653338/articles/N_QI0D4zn1667796894989/THERE-IS-NO-YAGNA-WITHOUT-YOGA.jpg)
In the Vedic world, to practice Dharma meant you give something to appease a deity who needs performing Yagna. Yagna was translated by nothing from you but your loyalty and obedience. In European orientalists as sacrifice. But in sacrifice, Yagna, you exchange. You give in order to receive
You feed a God and the God is obliged to feed you back. The assumption here is that the God is hungry. He needs praise and food. When he gets what he wants, he gives what you want.
Exchange is an indicator of humanity, for it shows empathy for the other’s hunger. This act of feeding others, and letting others feed you, is also Karma Yoga, the yoga of action, described in the famous Hindu scripture Bhagavad Gita. For in Yagna, you have control on the giving, but no guarantee of receiving. You need to trust that those whom you feed will eventually reciprocate. More importantly, their failure to reciprocate will not shatter your faith in humanity.

कर्तव्य की भावना से कार्य में उत्कृष्ठता (excellence)
क ई तरह की व्यवस्थाएँ हैं, जो हमें सचेत करती हैं कि हमें क्या करना है। माता-पिता, समाज, कानून आदि के प्रति हमारे कुछ उत्तरदायित्व होते हैं, कर्तव्य व व्यवहार के कुछ नियम होते हैं जिनका हमें पूर्ण रूप से पालन करना होता है, परन्तु बहुत से लोग अपने कर्तव्यों के प्रति लापरवाह होते हैं, उन्हें अपने कर्तव्य पालन करना पसंद नहीं है ।
