Krishna tells Arjuna that all beings are bound to act by their nature. Even those who renounce the world cannot escape the law of karma. However, there is a difference between good karma and bad karma. Good karma is selfless and leads to liberation, while bad karma is selfish and leads to bondage.

Krishna teaches Arjuna that it is important to perform one's duty without attachment to the results. He says that it is better to do one's own duty imperfectly than to do another's duty perfectly.

Krishna tells Arjuna that the path to liberation is through the practice of Karma Yoga. He says that by performing one's duty without attachment, one can attain inner peace and freedom from the cycle of birth and death.
