Gautamji continues Chapter 5 by explaining why the practice of Vedanta is renunciation in action, not withdrawal from life. He discusses how true renunciation is freedom from ego and selfish expectation while remaining active in work, family, and daily responsibilities. Through practical examples, he explains how dependence on external situations creates bondage, while higher thinking gradually leads to peace and inner freedom.
