Activity Itself Is a Result

There’s a deep truth I realized while reading the Bhagavad Gita —
Krishna says:
“Do your duty, without thinking about the results.”

At first, this sounds strange.
Why should I do something if I don’t get a result?

But then I understood —
The action itself is a result.

Example:

When you plant a tree, you don’t just wait for fruits.
At that moment, your brain releases happy chemicals — dopamine, serotonin, oxytocin.
You feel good right now, just by doing something meaningful.

Now imagine you hurt someone, or get angry.
Even before any “karma” happens outside, your brain releases stress chemicals — cortisol, tension, anxiety.

So actually, every action is already giving a result inside you, instantly.

Modern Science + Gita Say the Same:

Krishna says:

“Focus only on your karma, not on the fruit.”

Science says:

“Your thoughts and actions trigger real-time chemical changes in your body.”

So whether you act with kindness, discipline, anger, or ego —
your brain and soul are reacting immediately.

Final Thought:

Your mind is the first place where karma happens.
Sow love, peace, and discipline — and you’ll feel the result instantly.

Let’s stop chasing only outer rewards.
Let’s start valuing the inner rewards — the calm, joy, focus, and energy that come just from doing the right thing.

In short -

Action itself is a result. Mental state is the real karma.
