Karma, in the sense of action is normally done for one four reasons, according to Kunda Guruji :

1. phalApEkSa : a desire for results/benefits.
2. rAga dvESa : emotions like fondness and hatred
3. sanga : attachment
4. ahankAra : the sense of doership (I am the doer).

Absence of these reasons – leads to karmayoga.

There are 3 kinds of karmacOdana – motives (drivers) for karma according to Bhagavad Gita : Chapter 18.

1. Knowledge or gnyAna
2. That which is to be known – gnyEyam
3. The knower – parignyAta
