ତୁମର ଅଧିକାର କେବଳ ନିଜ କର୍ତ୍ତବ୍ୟ କରିବାରେ ଅଛି, ତାହାର ଫଳ ଉପରେ ନୁହେଁ। କର୍ମର ଫଳକୁ ଲକ୍ଷ୍ୟ କରି କାମ କରିବା ଉଚିତ୍ ନୁହେଁ, ଏବଂ ଫଳର ଆଶାରେ କର୍ମ ଛାଡ଼ି ଦେବା ମଧ୍ୟ ଉଚିତ୍ ନୁହେଁ।
ଜୀବନ ଶିକ୍ଷା
ନିଜ କର୍ତ୍ତବ୍ୟକୁ ନିଷ୍ଠାର ସହିତ କର। ଫଳର ଚିନ୍ତା ନକରି ଭଗବାନଙ୍କ ଉପରେ ବିଶ୍ୱାସ ରଖ।

ଅର୍ଥ (ଓଡ଼ିଆ)
ହେ ଭାରତ! ଯେତେବେଳେ ଧର୍ମର ଅବନତି ହୁଏ ଏବଂ ଅଧର୍ମର ପ୍ରଭାବ ବଢ଼ିଯାଏ, ସେତେବେଳେ ମୁଁ ନିଜେ ଅବତାର ଗ୍ରହଣ କରେ।
ଜୀବନ ଶିକ୍ଷା
