Bhagavad Gita, Chapter 16, Verse 18

Krishna said

अहङ्कारं बलं दर्पं कामं क्रोधं च संश्रिताः।मामात्मपरदेहेषु प्रद्विषन्तोऽभ्यसूयकाः ॥16.18॥

ahaṅkāraṃ balaṃ darpaṃ kāmaṃ krodhaṃ ca saṃśritāḥmāmātmaparadeheṣu pradviṣanto'bhyasūyakāḥ

Meaning

Relying on ego, force, arrogance, desire and anger, these envious people hate me, Krishna says, the very presence that lives in their own bodies and in others.

हिंदी में अर्थ

श्रीकृष्ण कहते हैं कि अहंकार, बल, घमंड, काम और क्रोध का सहारा लेने वाले ये ईर्ष्यालु लोग मुझसे द्वेष करते हैं, जो उनके अपने और दूसरों के शरीर में भी बसता हूँ।

Practise it today

When you feel resentment toward someone today, recall that the same divine presence lives in them, and soften one word or one look.

Reflect tonight

Whom did you resent today? Did seeing the same presence in them change anything?
