Bhagavad Gita, Chapter 18, Verse 25

Krishna said

अनुबन्धं क्षयं हिंसामनपेक्ष्य च पौरुषम्।मोहादारभ्यते कर्म यत्तत्तामसमुच्यते ॥18.25॥

anubandhaṃ kṣayaṃ hiṃsāmanapekṣya ca pauruṣammohādārabhyate karma yattattāmasamucyate

Meaning

Action started out of delusion, without thinking about consequences, loss, harm to others or one's own ability, is called tamasic.

हिंदी में अर्थ

जो कर्म भ्रम में आकर शुरू किया जाए, बिना परिणाम, नुकसान, दूसरों को होने वाली हानि या अपनी क्षमता को सोचे, वह तामसिक कहलाता है।

Practise it today

Before one impulsive action today, such as a sharp message or a purchase, pause and ask: what will this lead to, and who could it hurt?

Reflect tonight

What did you stop yourself from doing today after thinking of the consequences?
