Slacker

The day before I watched a movie called Slacker,by Richard Linklater(who has also made movies
like Before Sunrise, Before Sunset and Dazed and Confused). A different concept altogether.
Watch it to find out more. Then I also looked up Wikipedia for the term Slacker, and here
is an excerpt :

"
Hard work for its own sake is a fairly modern phenomenon, becoming culturally acceptable during the Protestant Reformation. A positive view of work was not a cultural norm for Hebrew, Classical antiquity, or medieval cultures. Greek society recognized that work was necessary for the satisfaction of material needs, but philosophers such as Plato and Aristotle made it clear that the purpose for which the majority of men labored was "in order that the minority, the élite, might engage in pure exercises of the mind — art, philosophy, and politics". The Greeks believed that a person's prudence, morality, and wisdom was directly proportional to the amount of leisure time that person had.
"
Now, my two cents.
How does Gita explain hard work for its own sake? Karm Yoga? There are 3 ways mentioned
in Gita which get one closer to God : Karm Yoga, Bhakti Yoga and Gyan Yoga. So unless a
Slacker is a believer(Bhakt, Bhakti Yoga) or has a sharp intellect devoted in search of God
(Gyan Yog), he/she is not as spiritual as a non-Slacker.
