How we miss the truth?
Without the context of seeking, even renunciation can lead you into laziness. Lot of people talk as if they are renouncing, but this is just to justify their laziness, dumbness, and stupidity.
Renunciation is not renouncing the action. You grow grass, feed the cow, milk, then make it as curd, churn, get the butter, boil it, and make ghee, offer the ghee to the Deity, Divine, God, Guru or whatever, that is renunciation, sacrifice. You not even making the effort to grow the grass is not sacrifice. That is boredom and tiredness. Without understanding the context, even the greatest truth can be missed and misused.
