    "If Madhva holds that the jīva's doership was always false (adhyāropita), does 3.30's command to 'surrender' presuppose a volitional act that the metaphysics disallows — or is the command itself only Bhagavān speaking through His instrument?",
    "Rāmānuja's antaryāmin reading makes the ātman a body of Bhagavān; does this dissolve the ethical weight of niṣkāma-karma, since the Supreme Person is the real worshipper and worshipped simultaneously?",
    "Vallabha's triple relinquishment (phala / mamā / kartṛtva) is analytically sharper than any other bhāṣya here — does this structure appear elsewhere in the Gītā, and is it original to him or drawn from earlier Vaiṣṇava sources?",
    "Śaṅkara treats this verse as karma-as-jñāna-preparation; Madhusūdana treats it as instruction for the mumukṣu who is not yet a jñānin — are these the same position or does Madhusūdana's devotional framing mark a genuine departure?",
    "Vigata-jvaraḥ is glossed by all commentators as grief/sorrow, but Madhusūdana adds the specific source: 'fear of disgrace or hell' (durya śo-narak-apāta). Does this specificity change the verse's practical application for a householder versus a renunciant?",
    "The verse is the first explicit 'surrender all action to Me' command — but mayi here is contested: Śaṅkara reads it as Vāsudeva-as-all-Self, Madhva as Hari-as-independent-agent, Rāmānuja as Paramapuruṣa-antaryāmin. Does this polysemy of mayi stabilize or destabilize the concept of karma-yoga across schools?",
    "Śrīdhara's framing ('you are not yet tattva-vit, so act') implies the verse is a developmental prescription, not a final statement. Which schools would agree that 3.30 is superseded at a higher stage, and which treat it as permanently normative?"
  ],
  "everyday_applications": {
    "advaita": "Before beginning work each morning, pause and internally place the entire day's tasks before the Self as witness — 'I act as instrument; the results belong to That.' When agitation (jvara) arises at a difficult outcome, trace it to the residual sense of 'I did this' and return to the viveka-buddhi that never owned the action. This is not passivity but the discipline of discriminative action.",
    "viśiṣṭādvaita": "In any relationship or service role, practice recognizing the other person as a body of Bhagavān being moved by Him — including yourself. Perform your duty as kainkarya (service-worship): the task is the same, the interior stance shifts from personal entitlement to offering. When anxiety about outcomes appears, recall: 'He who governs will also protect those who worship through action.'",
    "dvaita": "When you catch yourself saying 'I built this' or 'I failed at this,' recognize the Dvaita diagnosis: doership was never yours — it was Hari's working through you. Use this not as an excuse for inaction but as radical humility: you are an instrument, and instruments do not take credit. Daily examination: 'Where today did I claim agency that belongs only to Hari?'",
    "śuddhādvaita": "At the close of each action — a conversation, a meal prepared, a task completed — explicitly offer it: 'This is Yours, Kṛṣṇa.' Vallabha's arpaṇa is not a ceremony but a moment of conscious re-attribution. The threefold check: Did I want a specific result (phala-āsakti)? Did I treat this as mine (mamā)? Did I see myself as the cause (kartṛtva)? Each 'yes' is a practice opportunity, not a failure.",
    "bhakti": "For the practitioner who knows they are not yet fully established in truth, Śrīdhara's framing is honest and practical: do not wait for enlightenment before acting rightly. Act with the antaryāmin orientation — 'I am governed' — and let that orientation gradually erode the grief (śoka) that comes from treating outcomes as personal verdicts. The verse is permission to act, not a demand for perfection first.",
    "advaita-bhakti": "Madhusūdana's scope distinction applies directly: while cooking or working, keep the universal practice — offer the action, hold no result, desire nothing. But when specifically in conflict or competition (the 'battle'), the additional practice of nirmama toward those involved (not treating the adversary's victory as a personal loss) and vigata-jvaraḥ (releasing the fear of disgrace) come into play. Two levels, same root."
  },
  "primary_meaning": "Lay all your actions at My feet, with your mind fixed on the Self; free of craving, free of mine-ness, shed the fever of grief and fight."
