Evam gyatva krutam karma purvaih api mumukshubhih I

Kuru karma eva tasmat tvam purvaih purva taram krutam II sloka 15

एवं ज्ञात्वा कृतं कर्म पूर्वैः अपि मुमुक्षुभिः ।
कुरु कर्म एव तस्मात त्वं पूर्वैः पूर्व तरं कृतं ।। श्लोक १५ 


Knowing thus, even ancient seekers of liberation did work. Do your work only as  the ancients in the olden times. 


Actions of the kind described above were performed even by the aspirants of old for liberation, who have become free from evil after knowing me in this way. Therefore after having got rid of the sins of knowledge of me in this way, perform actions in the same way as they were performed by those ancient sages like Vivasvan, Manu etc in olden times, in the way in which their performance was taught by me even then.
