Bhagavad Gita has inspirations to change our life.

\n

Sloka 48 from Chapter 2 is how we can apply the wisdom of yoga in our daily life in every activity /work we do \u2013 build a China wall of detachment towards the results of our work while clinging fast /being totally attached to the work we must do!

\n

\n

BG 2.48: Be steadfast in the performance of your duty, O Arjun, abandoning attachment to success and failure. Such equanimity is called Yog.

\n

If you want to understand what \u2018attachment to duty/work is\u2019 with \u2018detachment to results\u2019 - watch the movie, Schindler\u2019s List. Oskar Schindler, a sharp German businessman creates many businesses, builds factories, spends his entire fortune, bribes Nazi officers in his one focused attempt of saving 850 Jews from going into Auschwitz concentration camp.

\n

He has no clue if his plans will work well or be caught by Nazis but he goes ahead with meticulous plans, and never ever worrying about the outcomes.

\n

Similarly, Bhagavan Krishna asks us to let go of attachment to results and do our duties associated with various roles with an attitude of gaining spiritually \u2013 rather than materially. Gaining spiritually is nothing but cultivating a mindset that is not elated at successes or depressed at failures of our efforts.

\n

This mindset \u2013 the balance, is called as yoga.

\n

Hari Om!
