If Arjuna didnt care and did nothing, that is a action in itself and is negative because he is not acting positively.
The answer to this is most likely yes because both are important forms of "worship."
Pretty much yes. The westernized version of what yoga is only scratches the surface.
Krishna says in the Gita
In this world there is a twofold path, as I said before, O sinless one – the path of knowledge of the Sankhyas and the path of action of the yogis.
Taken from a commentary analysis:
The man who has attained enlightenment, Sri Krishna explains to Arjuna, need not engage in action, as he has attained everything that has to be attained. He can be ever absorbed in the calm and immutable Self. But to perform action for the good of the world and for the education of the masses is no doubt superior. Therefore, action is necessary not only for one who has attained perfection but also for one who is striving for perfection. Sri Krishna quotes the example of Janaka, the great sage-king of India, who continued to rule his kingdom even after attaining God-realization.
