Chapter 3, Verse 33
sadṛśaṁ ceṣṭate svasyāḥ
prakṛter-jñānavān api
prakṛtiṁ yānti bhūtāni
nigrahaḥ kiṁ kariṣyati
Even an enlightened person acts in conformity to his own nature; beings follow their nature; what will restraint accomplish?
Krishna says, “What is the use of external restraint? Let it go! No one can be inactive for a moment.” Each person is driven by his own nature to act. “You, enlightened beings, through renunciation of your duties, you will not free yourself from bondage. Continue to perform your actions with the feeling of surrender.”
