Bhagavad Gita 2.49

Physical action is far inferior to an intellect concentrated on the Divine. Therefore, have recourse to Pure Intelligence. It is only the small-minded who work for reward.

दूरेण ह्यवरं कर्म बुद्धियोगाद्धनञ्जय।
बुद्धौ शरणमन्विच्छ कृपणाः फलहेतवः॥

dūreṇa hyavaraṃ karma buddhiyogāddhanañjaya|
buddhau śaraṇamanviccha kṛpaṇāḥ phalahetavaḥ||
