What kind of workers will not be affected by Sinful actions?
His Divine Grace A.C. Bhakthivedanta Swami Srila Prabhupada, Founder
Acharya, International Society for Krishna Consciousness, explains the
words of Krishna in BHAGAVAD GITA AS IT IS (C-5, T-10):
brahmany adhaya karmani
sangam tyaktva karoti yah
lipyate na sa papena
padma-patram ivambhasa
TRANSLATION
One who performs his duty without attachment, surrendering the results
unto the Supreme God, is not affected by sinful action, as the lotus
leaf is untouched by water.
PURPORT
Here brahmani
means in Krsna consciousness. The material world is a sum total
manifestation of the three modes of material nature, technically called
the pradhana. The Vedic hymns sarvam hy etad brahma (Mandukya Upanisad
2), tasmad etad brahma nama-rupam annam ca jayate (Mundaka Upanisad
1.2.10), and, in the Bhagavad-gita (14.3), mama yonir mahad brahma,
indicate that everything in the material world is the manifestation of
Brahman; and, although the effects are differently manifested, they are
nondifferent from the cause. In the Isopanisad it is said that
everything is related to the Supreme Brahman, or Krsna,
and thus
everything belongs to Him only. One who knows perfectly well that
everything belongs to Krsna, that He is the proprietor of everything and
that, therefore, everything is engaged in the service of the Lord,
naturally has nothing to do with the results of his activities, whether
virtuous or sinful. Even one's material body, being a gift of the Lord
for carrying out a particular type of action, can be engaged in Krsna
consciousness. It is beyond contamination by sinful reactions, exactly
as the lotus leaf, though remaining in the water, is not wet. The Lord
also says in the Gita (3.30), mayi sarvani karmani sannyasya: "Resign
all works unto Me [Krsna]." The conclusion is that a person without
Krsna consciousness acts according to the concept of the material body
and senses, but a person in Krsna consciousness acts according to the
knowledge that the body is the property of Krsna and should therefore be
engaged in the service of Krsna.
