There are only two ways out of this complex world-machine: one is to give up all concern with the machine, to let it go, and to stand aside, and give up our desires. That is very easy to say, but is almost impossible to do. I do not know whether in twenty millions of people even one can do that. The other way is to plunge into the world and learn the secret of work, and that is the way of Karma Yoga.
