It is not possible for any one to abstain from action. Action is the basis for our existence. This body has been given to us for the sake of action. It is the need of Man's life that he must sanctify it through action and purify his time by right action. This stream of action flows through Jnana (Wisdom) also and ultimately leads us to the highest stages of realization.
