Give up just the doership

Sri Ramana Maharshi
18-9-1945 afternoon

Visitor: When it is said that we must renounce all activities, is it meant that we should reduce our activities as much as possible?

B: By giving up activities is meant giving up attachment to activities or the fruits thereof, giving up the notion 'I am the doer'. The activities for going through which this body has come, will have to be gone through. There is no question of giving up such activities, whatever one may or may not like.
