The doctrine of Karma Yoga in the Bhagavad Gita is resurrected in "Dnyaneshwari" and its utility as a means of achieving actionlessness through action and in establishing harmony between the two is examined. In the fourth chapter, the ideal "karma yogi"'s actions are compared to the apparent movement of the Sun, which while appearing to rise and set is actually stationary; similarly, a "karma yogi", though appears to act, doesn't really act. Performance of one's duties, acting without egoism, renunciation of the fruits of one's actions and offering one's actions to God are four ways which, according to Dnyaneshwar, result in actionlessness and Self–realisation. Dnyaneshwar's metaphysical conclusion that the world is a manifestation of the divine, and not an illusion, also creates an ethical framework which rejects renunciation and recommends performing one's duties and actions in the spirit of worship.
