Krishna draws a striking parallel: the ignorant and the wise perform the same actions outwardly, but their inner orientation is opposite. The ignorant are driven by selfish attachment; the wise act from selfless concern for universal welfare (loka-sangraha). This means the wise person does not withdraw into an ivory tower of enlightenment but remains fully engaged in the same world, doing the same work — just with a fundamentally different consciousness. The external action is identical; the internal freedom is everything. Madhva's Dvaita sees the wise soul's inner orientation — toward God rather than self — as the distinguishing factor. Abhinavagupta recognizes expanded versus contracted awareness as the entire difference between liberation and bondage, with external actions identical. Vallabhacharya reads loka-sangraha as the spontaneous overflow of divine love. Tilak instructs the wise to maintain the same outward life with a transformed inner orientation. Vivekananda emphasizes that enlightenment is entirely internal, assessable only by freedom and service.
