Bhagavadgita

Hinduism has an important book {Bhagavadgita}.

detachment

People should do all things as duties or rituals {detachment, Hinduism}, because everything is deterministic. People should not do things to reach goals or satisfy wants. People should not act as agents. People should do and think only of act itself, not of consequences or effects. People should keep on acting but should act selflessly. Austerity, alms, and offerings are duties and should not have feelings of sacrifice, pride, or reservations.

self

Self is the same as the One. Bodily changes, feeling, will, desire, rewards, or punishments should not affect Self.

transformation

All things are only temporary, formed by transformations of the One in playful dream-like foreordained games, dances, or illusions. Divine power produces all things by its transformations.

unity

The One is Creator, Maintainer, and Destroyer of universe. The One is indifferent to humans and all desires and attachments.

karma yoga

Yoga of Selfless Action {karma yoga} concentrates on one's inner Self, because One and Self are same thing. Because all arises from the One, people should surrender to, and merge with, the One. People should do their duty and perform the work of the One in the world.

Krishna

In Bhagavadgita, Krishna (Dark One), in human form, persuades prince to return to duty as soldier and leader.
