SLOKA OF THE DAY:

Bhagavad Gita As It Is -
Chapter 4 Text 33
sreyan dravya-mayad yajnaj
jnana-yajnah parantapa
sarvam karmakhilam partha
jnane parisamapyate

sreyan--greater; dravya-mayat--of material possessions; yajnat--than the sacrifice; jnana-yajnah--sacrifice in knowledge; parantapa--O chastiser of the enemy; sarvam--all; karma--activities; akhilam--in totality; partha--O son of Prtha; jnane--in knowledge; parisamapyate--end.

TRANSLATION

O chastiser of the enemy, the sacrifice performed in knowledge is better than the mere sacrifice of material possessions. After all, O son of Prtha, all sacrifices of work culminate in transcendental knowledge.
