Atheists too try to have the last word so where is the problem?
Sure. I just thought that one of a yogi's goals was to be indifferent to such things.
(4.19-4.23) The Poet, Sanjaya Wrote:With no desire for success,
no anxiety about failure,
indifferent to results, he burns up
his actions in the fire of wisdom.
Surrendering all thoughts of outcome,
unperturbed, self-reliant,
he does nothing at all, even
when fully engaged in actions.
There is nothing that he expects,
nothing that he fears. Serene,
free from possessions, untainted,
acting with the body alone,
content with whatever happens,
unattached to pleasure or pain,
success or failure, he acts
and is never bound by his action.
When a man has let go of attachments,
when his mind is rooted in wisdom,
everything he does is worship
and all his actions melt away.
