Karma – The Story Behind Our Duty-Driven Tee

Karma – The Story Behind Our Duty-Driven Tee

 

 

The back of our KARMA T-shirt features the iconic Sanskrit verse — “कर्मण्येवाधिकारस्ते मा फलेषु कदाचन” (Karmanye Vadhikaraste Ma Phaleshu Kadachana), from the Bhagavad Gita, which translates to:

 

“You have the right to perform your duty, but not to the fruits of your actions.”

 

This timeless teaching from Lord Krishna to Arjuna is a cornerstone of the philosophy of Karma Yoga — focusing on righteous action without attachment to results. It’s a reminder to live with purpose, to act with integrity, and to let go of the anxiety over outcomes.

 

 

The Philosophy and Mythology Behind It

 

In the epic Mahabharata, during the battlefield dialogue of the Bhagavad Gita, Arjuna faces moral doubt and despair. Lord Krishna imparts the wisdom that one must act according to dharma (righteous duty) without selfish desire for reward. This principle is the heart of Karma Yoga — selfless action performed as a spiritual discipline.

 

This philosophy encourages resilience, detachment, and a focus on the present moment. It’s about doing what’s right, regardless of personal gain, and trusting the flow of the universe.
