Srimad Bhagavat Gita commentary chapter 3 verse 27


Chapter 3 verse 27

“All actions are performed, in all cases, merely by the qualities in nature or gunas. He, whose mind is deluded by egoism, thinks ‘I am the doer’”

2 simple equations:
Past karma (prarabhda karma) + current vasanas + momentarily free will + God’s grace +Ego of doer = momentary action + Additional vasanas

Past karma (prarabhda karma) + current vasanas + momentarily free will + God’s grace +No Ego = momentary action exhausting of current vasanas

From 1st equation, you can tell that ego comes in the way of divine’s grace as well and adds additional vasanas, while non doership does not resist divine grace and helps exhausts current tendencies or vasanas. Therefore all of us need to adopt 2nd equation for our lives!
