"Devotion is a means as well as its true end when it grows into a full treasure. When devotion becomes a treasure, you will need nothing more for inner fullness or affluence. As devotion grows, it will begin to free you of all desire, hatred and fear. It will relieve poverty, either by making you amply resourceful or by taking away from you the very feeling of poverty. Devotion also will remove your weakness, generating untold strength and confidence."

<< Chapter 3 Verse 26 >>
<   >

न बुद्धिभेदं जनयेदज्ञानां कर्मसङ्गिनाम् ।
जोषयेत्सर्वकर्माणि विद्वान्युक्तः समाचरन् ।। ३.२६ ।।

na buddhi-bhedaṁ janayed-ajñānāṁ karma-saṅginām |
joṣayet-sarva-karmāṇi vidvān-yuktaḥ samācaran || 3.26 ||

   
Krishna also emphasizes (verse 3.26) that the wise should take care not to breed confusion in the minds of the people in general. If he resorts to inactivity in the name of spiritual enlightenment, the others, failing to perceive his inner illumination, also would resort to idleness and lethargy. The result will be widespread degeneration. The enlightened should not become a cause for such a general downfall or perversion. Let the wise keep to their benevolent activity, inspiring others around to work hard in their respective fields. Krishna thus insists upon the need to conform to the karmic wheel of Nature at any cost.
