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.
