Actions that take one away from 'I' consciousness

or personal personality establishment,

are actions that lead to

the Self.

-   Param Pujya Ma

Chapter 3 Shloka 35

श्रेयान् स्वधर्मो विगुण: परधर्मात्स्वनुष्ठितात्।

स्वधर्मे निधनं श्रेय: परधर्मो भयावह:।।३५।।

Bhagwan advises performance of action

according to one’s own nature:

One’s own dharma even though not distinguished

is preferable to the elevated dharma of another.

Even death in the performance of one’s own duty

is preferable; another’s duty is fraught with fear.
