Commentary

Yo, Arjuna, listen up. Sacrifices, gifts, and self-discipline? Total essentials. They cleanse your soul, especially if you're not doing it for clout. It's all about doing the right thing, no cap. These actions? They're straight fire, freeing you from the earthly grind. I'm 'bout to drop some knowledge on how to make these actions work for you, not against you.
