Self is not concerned with actions and the question (of how the action will go on) does not arise.

Devotee:  If one remained quiet how is action to go on? Where is the place for karma yoga?


Ramana Maharishi:  Let us first understand what Karma is, whose Karma it is and who is the doer. Analysing them and enquiring into their truth, one is perforce obliged to remain as the Self in peace. Nevertheless the actions will go on.


Devotee:  How will the actions go on if I do not act?


Ramana Maharishi:  Who asks this question? Is it the Self or another? Is the Self concerned with actions?


Devotee:  No, not the Self. It is another, different from the Self.


Ramana Maharishi:  So it is plain that the Self is not concerned with actions and the question does not arise.


Devotee:  I agree.
