BG 3.8
नियतं कुरु कर्म त्वं कर्म ज्यायो ह्यकर्मण: |
शरीरयात्रापि च ते न प्रसिद्ध्येदकर्मण: || 8||
niyataṁ kuru karma tvaṁ karma jyāyo hyakarmaṇaḥ
śharīra-yātrāpi cha te na prasiddhyed akarmaṇaḥ
You should thus perform your prescribed Vedic duties, since action is superior to inaction. By ceasing activity, even your bodily maintenance will not be possible.

अकर्मणश्च बोद्धव्यं गहना कर्मणो गति: || 17||

akarmaṇaśh cha boddhavyaṁ gahanā karmaṇo gatiḥ
You must understand the nature of all three—recommended action, wrong action, and inaction. The truth about these is profound and difficult to understand.
