Bhagavad Gita, Chapter 17, Verse 6
कर्षयन्तः शरीरस्थं भूतग्राममचेतसः।मां चैवान्तःशरीरस्थं तान्विद्ध्यासुरनिश्चयान् ॥17.6॥karṣayantaḥ śarīrasthaṃ bhūtagrāmamacetasaḥmāṃ caivāntaḥśarīrasthaṃ tānviddhyāsuraniścayān
Meaning
Such thoughtless people torment the elements of their own body, and in doing so they torment Me, who dwell within the body too. Know their resolve to be demonic (against the divine).
हिंदी में अर्थ
ऐसे विवेकहीन लोग अपने शरीर में स्थित तत्वों को कष्ट देते हैं, और शरीर के भीतर रहने वाले मुझे भी पीड़ा देते हैं। उनका निश्चय आसुरी (ईश्वर-विरोधी) जानो।
Practise it today
Treat your body kindly today: drink water when thirsty, rest when tired, and drop one harsh word you usually say to yourself.
Reflect tonight
In what small way did you respect your body today instead of pushing or punishing it?
