Objects fall away from the abstinent man, leaving the longing behind. But his longing also ceases, who sees the Supreme. Lord Krishna
Noble indeed are they all, but the wise man I regard as My very Self; for with the mind steadfast, he is established in Me alone, as the supreme goal. Lord Krishna
Devotees in the path of work perform action, only with body, mind, senses, and intellect, forsaking attachment, for the purification of the heart. Lord Krishna
The foolish regard Me, the unmanifested, as come into manifestation, not knowing My supreme state—immutable and transcendental. Lord Krishna
Boldness, forgiveness, fortitude, purity, absence of hatred, absence of pride; these belong to one born for a divine state, O descendant of Bharata. Lord Krishna
He by whom the world is not agitated and who cannot be agitated by the world, who is freed from joy, envy, fear, and anxiety—he is dear to Me. Lord Krishna
Endued with this evenness of mind, one frees oneself in this life, alike from vice and virtue. Devote thyself, therefore, to this Yoga. Yoga is the very dexterity of work. Lord Krishna
All beings are unmanifested in their beginning, O Bharata, manifested in their middle state, and unmanifested again in their end. What is there then to grieve about? Lord Krishna
When he sees the separate existence of all beings inherent in the One, and their expansion from That alone, he then becomes Brahman. Lord Krishna
He who judges of pleasure or pain everywhere, by the same standard as he applies to himself, that Yogi, O Arjuna, is regarded as the highest. Lord Krishna
Calmness, gentleness, silence, self-restraint and purity: these are the disciplines of the mind. Lord Krishna
Whatever happened was good. What’s happening is going well. Whatever will happen will also be good. Do not worry about the future. Live in the present. Lord Krishna
Why do you worry unnecessarily? Whom do you fear? Who can kill you? The soul is neither born nor dies. Lord Krishna
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
