1. Do your own homework. If you only have a week to complete the
assignment it's no ones problem but yours.
2. Your professor is going to take off marks for bad spelling.
3. You already seem to developed have a notion of what the Gita's attitude
is towards ritual. Expand on this. Which verses do you feel support this
view? Needless to say I don't see such a diagreement.
