Tilak-- one says, "if i do work, there will be problem... If I do not work, there will be no problem.. So I will keep quiet.. "-- This attitude is not right as long as there is craving in the mind. 

Gita--- renunciation of all fruits of actions is Thyaga. This can be done either through bhakti Or jnana. In bhakti fruit is offered to God. In jnana, mind does not dwell on the fruit of actions

2or 3 decades back, in calicut, we were in touch with an orphanage. Even a newborn baby is taken in. A cradle is kept out for givers to keep the baby secretly. 

Once we went there. The matron was talking to someone. She raised her voice and then cried. The couple left with a baby. We wondered what happened. She said, she had found a baby in the cradle and she took care of it like her own. One couple took it for adoption. They were supposed to bring it every six months. This couple brought the child very late and that was what had made her angry and then sob. This was her attitude to every child. She is ready to part from every child but has love for all children.... 

In Tiruppur, one lady decided to not get married and started an NGO for orphan children. 40 children were there. The children used to rush to her after the school...

This is renunciation of the fruit of actions

Even if retired to forest
With cravings one can't be serene
With senses under control
Even a house becomes tapovana

No need to go somewhere to have scientific mind

Oxygen is available everywhere

No need to go anywhere to breathe

So also no need to go anywhere to become spiritual
