1 The message of the Gita is to be found in the second chapter of the Gita where Lord Krishna speaks of the balanced state of mind, of mental equipoise.
Mind is a very powerful part of our human body, it controls us. But to attain a balanced state of mind, it’s we who need to control our brain in return so that we lead a meaningful life.
2 I enter into each planet, and by My energy, they stay in orbit. I become the moon and thereby supply the juice of life to all vegetables.
Lord Krishna is the god of compassion, tenderness, love and creation. He plays his parts right to keep a balance in the world and give out peace and love.
3 The mind is restless and difficult to restrain, but it is subdued by practice.
Our minds are very restless and fragile. If they can make some brilliant decisions, they can also make some hasty ones. All one needs to do is take counter control over it and it can only be attained by practice.
4 The secret of karma yoga which is to perform actions without any fruitive desires is taught by Lord Krishna in the Bhagavad-Gita.
Karma yoga is the art of working towards your passion without having the greed of fruit. One just loves serving and giving out good deeds.
5 It is better to perform one’s own duties imperfectly than to master the duties of another. By fulfilling the obligations one is born with, a person never comes to grief.
Never try to compare your life with that of the other. Stay focused on your path because you’ll never be able to succeed in someone else’s. Figure out your way on your own and stay focused and you will succeed.
6 Experience cold or heat, pleasure, or pain. These experiences are fleeting; they come and go. Bear them patiently
Cold or heat, pleasure or pain, enjoyment of dullness are all temporary. Nothing is permanent as these are nothing but short term. Let their phase come and go patiently.
7 You have the right to work, but never to the fruit of the work. You should never engage in action for the sake of reward, nor should you long for inaction. -Lord Krishna, Bhagavad Gita.
One should always worry about how he is going to work rather than worrying about waiting for the right time to start or what outcomes he’ll get. If his work will be done in an excellent manner, obviously it will be fruitful.
8 Do everything you have to do, but not with greed, not with ego, not with lust, not with envy but with love, compassion, humility and devotion. -Lord Krishna, Bhagavad Gita.
Always have positive energy while doing a task. Never do it out of hatred or envy, but with a good heart filled with positivity.
9 For one who has conquered his mind, a mind is best of friends, but for one who has failed to do so, a mind is the greatest enemy. -Lord Krishna, Bhagavad Gita.
One should always keep his mind in control rather than being in control of the mind. One who achieves it prosper in life but the one who doesn’t struggle to survive.
10 There are three gates to self-destruction and hell: Lust, Anger & Greed. – Lord Krishna, Bhagavad Gita.
Lust, Anger, and greed are the most venomous traits of a person. If one learns and masters on how to control them, he or she will lead a healthy and positive life.
11 Creation is only the projection into form of that which already exists. -Lord Krishna, Bhagavad Gita.
Creation is nothing but what we think of by seeing our surroundings which actually already exist. Creation is nature’s gift to us to make more things from those which we’ve been already given.
12 The mind acts like an enemy for those who do not control it. -Lord Krishna, Bhagavad Gita.
Controlling the mind is the biggest of the tasks as it is very gentle and sensitive. If one loses to the mind, it’ll make you take those decisions which you will definitely regret.
13 The soul can never be cut to pieces by any weapon, nor burned by fire, nor moistened by water, nor withered by the wind. – Lord Krishna, Bhagavad Gita.
Our soul is nothing, but what we are from the inside, our foundations, principle, and beliefs make our soul. No element on this earth can change it.
14 He who has no attachments can truly love others. For his love is pure and divine. – Lord Krishna, Bhagavad Gita.
One can only give out love when he is free of boundations and expectations. Because giving without expecting is the biggest form of love and a good deed.
15 Set your heart upon your work but never it’s reward.
One should always believe in working hard because if the work is done beautifully, the reward will automatically be fulfilling. Because if we’ll keep on worrying about the fruits, the work wouldn’t be done with our full heart in it.
