According to the Gita, how do I abandon fruits of my karma? Should I donate my whole salary and stay hungry?

न चाति स्वप्नशीलस्य जाग्रतो नैव चार्जुन || 6. 16||

O Arjuna! Yoga is not for him who eats too much or doesn't eat all; Yoga is not for him who sleeps too much or doesn't sleep at all

युक्तस्वप्नावबोधस्य योगो भवति दु:खहा || 6. 17||

Thanks for your question and asking me to answer!

Abandoning the fruits of actions means you offer the results of your actions to God. This doesn't mean that you will not receive the fruits of your actions. You certainly will! But when you work, you must perform it as an offering unto God and leave the results in His hands. You don't think about the results of your actions while you are working, and even after you are done with your work!

Will Kamala Harris rekindle the business model of sleeping your way to the top?

So that way, you cannot abandon the fruits of your action. Now you will be attached to the action of donating all your money and staying hungry!

If you want to donate your whole salary and stay hungry, why work at all in the first place?

There must be a sense of balance in all your activities avoiding the two extremes of being a workaholic and being a lazy person. Similarly in your eating, sleeping, relaxing, you must be moderate.

Trump's "They're Eating Cats and Dogs" quote has become a meme. Would this help him get elected? I hope you can be impartial when responding to this question. Thank you

नात्यश्नतस्तु योगोऽस्ति न चैकान्तमनश्नत: |

Is there any need of sweating so much just to stay hungry? And after so much toiling from morning till evening or night, where's the energy left in you to stay hungry even? You will not only be able not to stay hungry, but you will overeat! To stay hungry, your body must in a fit condition.
