EVERYDAY GITA Quotes

“Krishna suggests through the Bhagavad Gita that we should indulge in a daily honest introspection to see which force, good or evil, wins the daily battle everyday.”

“Loss of memory follows delusion—memory of their own dignity, their real nature, of what they are supposed to do. Such a person is unable to distinguish between right and wrong. Without the ability to distinguish, the path leads to destruction and misery.”

“The Spirit that dwells in the body of all beings is eternally indestructible. Therefore, you should not mourn for anybody. (2.30) When we mourn somebody’s death, we actually mourn for ourselves. This may seem odd, but it is a fact, that we mourn a relationship that we have lost, a loss of a comforter and an emotional partner.”

“Since our own body cannot be expected to live forever, how can we expect others to be there for us forever? It is wise to not expect anything to provide us with everlasting happiness, be it our family, friends or material possessions.”

“People speak very sensibly about life and its trials, yet when they are faced with situations like missing the bus or a flight, they immediately become stressed. This is where one must do some introspection and remove this two-facedness. The wise do not waste their time in complaining or crying over things that are changeable. Better time management can help prevent instances of missing a bus or flight. Those who complain and get distressed are the ones who believe in the sense of possession and expectation. It is a myopic way of looking at the world. Death of a loved one reminds us that it is God’s world and nothing belongs to us; we cannot possess anything or anyone and when there are no possessions, how can there be any expectations?”

“By practising yoga and meditation, we can learn to control our senses. Once the senses are controlled, it is not difficult to detach ourselves from the material world. It’s just a matter of inculcating a new habit—the habit of saying ‘no’ to temptations.”
