QUOTES AND HAIKU ON MESSAGE OF BHAGAVAD GITA

 

QUOTES FROM GOODREADS

  • Death is as sure for that which is born, as birth is for that which is dead. Therefore grieve not for what is inevitable.

  • You have the right to work, but for the work's sake only. You have no right to the fruits of work. Desire for the fruits of work must never be your motive in working. Never give way to laziness, either

  • One who sees inaction in action, and action in inaction, is intelligent among humans.

  • When a man dwells on the pleasure of sense, attraction for them arises in him. From attraction arises desire, the lust of possession, and this leads to passion (reckless pursuit), to anger.

  • From anger comes confusion of mind, then loss of remembrance, the forgetting of duty. From this loss comes the ruin of reason, and the ruin of reason leads man to destruction.

  • Having attained that abiding joy beyond the senses, revealed in the stilled mind, you must never swerve from the eternal truth.

~ Bhagavad Gita
