Gita reflection Ch 2 verses 25 & 26

 20th February 2024


  • We can overcome our mundane worries in two ways. The first is by counting our blessings, comparing them to the suffering of those who can't even meet their basic needs for life, like hunger, thirst, and shelter. 
  • The second way is by uplifting our thoughts towards our higher self, which is immutable, unchanging, and eternal. While the first way offers temporary relief, the second provides permanent and everlasting comfort. 
  • Life is full of changes that we can't avoid. To help us cope with them, we can keep the mantra 'Even this will pass away' in our minds. 
  • At the start of each day, when we flip to the next date in our daily calendar, we can remind ourselves that the past is gone, the future is unknown, and all we have is the present moment to face with a fresh mind, free from worries.
