My dear Arjuna, one who does not follow in human life the cycle of sacrifice thus established by the Vedas certainly leads a life full of sin. Living only for the satisfaction of the senses, such a person lives in vain.
Dragi Moj Arjuna, kdor dobi telo človeka in ne opravlja v Vedah predpisanega cikla žrtvovanj, vsekakor živi zelo grešno. Tak človek, ki živi samo za zadovoljstvo svojih čutov, živi zaman.

The mammonist philosophy of “work very hard and enjoy sense gratification” is condemned herein by the Lord. Therefore, for those who want to enjoy this material world, the above-mentioned cycle of performing yajñas is absolutely necessary. One who does not follow such regulations is living a very risky life, being condemned more and more. By nature’s law, this human form of life is specifically meant for self-realization, in either of the three ways – namely karma-yoga, jñāna-yoga or bhakti-yoga. There is no necessity of rigidly following the performances of the prescribed yajñas for the transcendentalists who are above vice and virtue; but those who are engaged in sense gratification require purification by the above-mentioned cycle of yajña performances. There are different kinds of activities. Those who are not Kṛṣṇa conscious are certainly engaged in sensory consciousness; therefore they need to execute pious work. The yajña system is planned in such a way that sensory conscious persons may satisfy their desires without becoming entangled in the reaction of sense-gratificatory work. The prosperity of the world depends not on our own efforts but on the background arrangement of the Supreme Lord, directly carried out by the demigods. Therefore, the yajñas are directly aimed at the particular demigods mentioned in the Vedas. Indirectly, it is the practice of Kṛṣṇa consciousness, because when one masters the performance of yajñas one is sure to become Kṛṣṇa conscious. But if by performing yajñas one does not become Kṛṣṇa conscious, such principles are counted as only moral codes. One should not, therefore, limit his progress only to the point of moral codes, but should transcend them, to attain Kṛṣṇa consciousness.
Gospod tu obsoja mamonizem, katerega načelo je „trdo delaj in uživaj v zadovoljevanju čutov“. Tisti, ki želijo uživati materialni svet, morajo nujno opravljati omenjeni cikel yajñij. Kdor ne upošteva teh predpisov, živi zelo tvegano in vse bolj obsodbe vredno življenje. Človeško življenje je po zakonu narave posebej namenjeno dosegi samospoznanja, do katerega vodijo tri poti: pot karma-yoge, pot jñāna-yoge in pot bhakti-yoge. Transcendentalist, ki gre po eni od teh poti, je nad pregreho in krepostjo, zato mu ni treba strogo opravljati predpisanih yajñij. Tisti, ki se vdajajo čutnim užitkom, pa se morajo očistiti z opravljanjem omenjenega cikla yajñij. Poznamo različne vrste delovanja. Kdor ni zavesten Kṛṣṇe, je gotovo na ravni čutne zavesti, zato mora delovati pobožno. Sistem yajñij je oblikovan tako, da lahko ljudje, ki bi radi zadovoljili svoje čute, storijo to, ne da bi morali trpeti posledice svojih dejanj. Blaginja sveta ni odvisna od naših prizadevanj, temveč od Gospodovega načrta, ki ga neposredno uresničujejo polbogovi. Yajñe so zato neposredno namenjene posameznim polbogovom, omenjenim v Vedah, posredno pa je opravljanje yajñij razvijanje zavesti Kṛṣṇe, kajti kdor se jih nauči opravljati, gotovo postane zavesten Kṛṣṇe. Če se to ne zgodi, je opravljanje yajñij le upoštevanje moralnih pravil. Svojega napredovanja ne smemo omejiti samo na upoštevanje moralnih pravil, temveč moramo ta preseči, da bi lahko tako razvili zavest Kṛṣṇe.
