Surrendering all activities to God

In the Bhagavad Gita, there is a verse that states

"O scion of Bharata, surrender unto Him utterly.  By His grace you will attain transcendental peace and the supreme and eternal abode."

Many religious believers from all varieties of religions have understood and embraced this concept wholeheartedly.  They believe that all activities that they perform occur as a direct result of the grace of God.  This includes all sorts of activities ranging from their work duties as well as their household duties.

We see this activity frequently reflected in all types of mediums from work activities to household computer activities.  By offering all these types of activities to God, one becomes purified of sins in a manner similar to offering food to God by saying "Grace" before consuming food.

If we take upon ourselves the daily practice of offering all of our activities to God, by gradual degrees we can continue to be purified and cleansed of our sins and therefore come to see and realize God.
