Bhagavad Gita, Chapter 17, Verse 28
अश्रद्धया हुतं दत्तं तपस्तप्तं कृतं च यत्।असदित्युच्यते पार्थ न च तत्प्रेत्य नो इह ॥17.28॥aśraddhayā hutaṃ dattaṃ tapastaptaṃ kṛtaṃ ca yatasadityucyate pārtha na ca tatpretya no iha
Meaning
Whatever is offered, given, practised as austerity or done without faith is called 'asat' (unreal), Arjuna. It brings no good, neither here nor after death.
हिंदी में अर्थ
हे पार्थ, बिना श्रद्धा के जो भी हवन किया जाए, दान दिया जाए, तप किया जाए या कोई कर्म किया जाए, वह 'असत्' कहलाता है। उसका न इस लोक में फल है, न परलोक में।

Which half-hearted task did you face today, and did you commit to it or let it go?
