Thanks for the comments.

I totally agree with you. I dont think if i go and tell my friends to do some action without any expectation. This is a excellent start to make people think differently on actions. I am trying to colect facts to explain my dear and near ones. I know its not so easy.

There is no second thought about what you are telling. Others also have similar comments above.

This post is a stepping to the final mindset you are talking about. You can see in my previous comments about the same.

/* The mind is a pretty deceitful creature */

Very valid point. I understand what you are saying to make it easy and definitely more implementable.

But to mature one day we would need to excercise control over this creature.

Nice post on actions. To say frankly after reading your post, I thought why to make complex by categorizing the actions into three ways. But I understood about the ultimate goal is to bring selfless action which is same as said in bhagavad Gita 3rd chapter.
Recently i started reading bhagavad gita which i would like to share in this post with your permission. Karma yoga- the active path of selfless service. The point stated in Gita is do your actions without any attachment to resutls. (as no scorecard is necessary). In Chapter 3 Krishna begins to tell Arjuna if anyone follows the path of selfless work, Krishna explains, he will enjoy this world as well as the next. More Important he will gain a spiritual blessing and will be lessening his debt of karma.

In another chapter, Krishna points out “you have the rights to work, but never to the fruit of work. You should never engage in action for the sake of reward, nor should you long for inaction. This is against your post.

In my point all the three categorizations should aim to the same goal, do your action without any expectations in return.
