# Bhagavadgita 2.41

Srimad-Bhagavad-Gita 2.41

- **Language:** English

### [2.41](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darsana.all.gita~en-swarupananda.2.41)

In this, O scion of Kuru, there is but a single one-pointed determination. The purposes of the undecided are innumerable and many-branching.

### [2.41.n1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darsana.all.gita~en-swarupananda.2.41.n1)

In Karma Yoga, the one goal is Self-realisation. The undecided (that is, about the highest), naturally devote themselves to lower ideals, no one of which can satisfy. Thus they pass from plan to plan.
