Is it not sufficient to sacrifice the ambition of the fruit of work instead of the fruit of work itself?

Swami replied:- In the very beginning itself, the second chapter of the Gita says that the fruit of the work must be sacrificed (Karmajam Buddhi Yuktahi Phalam Tyaktva Maneeshinah). This means that realized scholars sacrifice the fruit of the work. The Gita keeps the sacrifice of the fruit of work at the highest level (Dhyanath Karma Phala Tyagah). According to the Veda, sacrifice of the fruit of work means the sacrifice of money alone (Dhanena Tyagenaike). Karma Phalam means self-earned money with which the man is more attached. Reason for the inability to do the sacrifice of fruit of work (Karma Phala Tyaga) is the selfish ambition for the fruit of the work. Therefore if the selfish ambition is removed, the fruit of the work can be easily sacrificed. It is funny to enjoy the fruit of work and say that he has no ambition for the fruit of the work. In such case you must also enjoy the fruit of your sin in the hell that is cutting off your muscles by knife etc., without any selfish ambition. Shaktuprastha was tested in the sacrifice of the fruit of work, which alone can prove the lack of selfish ambition for the fruit of the work. If one says that he has sacrificed the ambition for the fruit of the work and yet, enjoys the fruit of work is trying to fool the author of the Gita. In turn the Lord will fool him in the hell.
