The ancient Indian spirituality presents two great ideals: First is the ideal of the sanyasin who renounces the world and becomes a wandering monk. The other one is that of the perfect Karma Yogi  who lives  and acts in the  world  from an enlightened  consciousness  which is free from ego and desire, calm and composed in action, and as a result much more energetic , efficient and creative than the one  who is driven helplessly  by his ego and desires, and living in the turmoil of  his passions.
