Bhagavad Gita — Chapter 3, Verse 23

यदि ह्यहं न वर्तेयं जातु कर्मण्यतन्द्रितः । मम वर्त्मानुवर्तन्ते मनुष्याः पार्थ सर्वशः ॥ २३ ॥

yadi hyahaṁ na varteyaṁ jātu karmaṇyatandritaḥ mama vartmānuvartante manuṣhyāḥ pārtha sarvaśhaḥ

Translation

For if I did not always engage in action tirelessly, O Parth, people would follow my path in every way.

Hindi Meaning (हिंदी अर्थ)

क्योंकि हे पार्थ! यदि मैं कभी सावधान होकर कर्म न करूँ, तो सब मनुष्य सब प्रकार से मेरे ही मार्ग का अनुसरण करेंगे।

Commentary

Atandritaḥ — "without laziness" — is how God acts. Because people take the divine as their model, even the Lord chooses to act, so as not to set an example of idleness.
