To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Paul's thought is that of loving devotion to an infinite Friend and Saviour; it is such an offering of loyalty and love as one conscious being can make to another and a higher. But Krish- na identifies the giver with the receiver, and Arjuna is taught to regard the gift itself as an act of God. The phrase " commit that to me " is equivalent to " ascribe that to me." In the context we read : " Of those men, who thinking of me in identity (with themselves), worship me, for them always resting in ...me, I bear the burden of acquisition and preservation of possessions. Even those the devotees of other gods, who worship in faith, they worship me in ig- norance." In other words, the worshipper is to make no difference between himself and the Infinite. He is to refer all his daily acts to the Infinite as the real actor, his own personal ego being ignored. This is not Paul's idea ; it is the very reverse of it. It could give comfort only to the evil-doer who desired to shift his personal responsibility.
