Krishna said
इच्छा द्वेषः सुखं दुःखं सङ्घातश्चेतनाधृतिः।एतत्क्षेत्रं समासेन सविकारमुदाहृतम् ॥13.7॥

icchā dveṣaḥ sukhaṃ duḥkhaṃ saṅghātaścetanādhṛtiḥetatkṣetraṃ samāsena savikāramudāhṛtam

Meaning

Krishna continues: desire, dislike, pleasure, pain, the body as a whole, consciousness and steadiness. This, in brief, is the field along with its changes.

हिंदी में अर्थ

श्रीकृष्ण आगे कहते हैं: इच्छा, द्वेष, सुख, दुःख, शरीर का समूह, चेतना और धैर्य, यह सब अपने बदलावों के साथ संक्षेप में क्षेत्र कहा गया है।

Practise it today

When a strong like or dislike rises today, label it silently as 'this is a passing feeling', and wait one breath before reacting.

Reflect tonight

Which feeling did you label today, and did waiting one breath change your response?
