Srimad Bhagavat Gita commentary chapter 17 verse 12

 Chapter 17 verse 12 

“O best of the Bharatas, know that sacrifice, which is performed for material benefit, or with hypocritical aim, to be in the mode of passion.” 

As in yagna of the fire sacrifice kind and any other action performed by men for pure material benefit or in the mode of passion, the result will not benefit the eternal nature of the soul and will leave a psychic imprint on the soul which would need immense work to erase. Hence all actions need to be done with an attitude of surrender to the divine.
