If we hoe the garden carefully so that our family can have fresh vegetables for dinner, that is an offering to the Lord. If we work a little more than is expected of us at something that benefits others, that too is an offering to the Lord. Everywhere, in every detail of daily living, it is not a question of quantity or expense that makes our offering acceptable; it is the cheerfulness, enthusiasm, and the capacity to forget ourselves completely in helping those around us.
— Eknath Easwaran, The Bhagavad Gita for Daily Living, Volume 2
