According to the Gita, how do I abandon fruits of my karma? Should I donate my whole salary and stay hungry?

So that way, you cannot abandon the fruits of your action. Now you will be attached to the action of donating all your money and staying hungry!

Says Sri Krishna in the 6th Chapter of the Bhagavad Gita —

नात्यश्नतस्तु योगोऽस्ति न चैकान्तमनश्नत: |

What are "demonic attacks" and how can one tell when they're happening to them, or someone else? How would one go about dealing with it?

nātyaśhnatastu yogo ’sti na chaikāntam anaśhnataḥ।

Abandoning the fruits of actions means you offer the results of your actions to God. This doesn't mean that you will not receive the fruits of your actions. You certainly will! But when you work, you must perform it as an offering unto God and leave the results in His hands. You don't think about the results of your actions while you are working, and even after you are done with your work!

You can as well stay hungry without earning! Why waste your time and energy in toiling from dawn to dusk just to earn money, donate all of them and stay hungry?
