Bhagavad Gita, Chapter 18, Verse 3

Krishna said
त्याज्यं दोषवदित्येके कर्म प्राहुर्मनीषिणः।यज्ञदानतपःकर्म न त्याज्यमिति चापरे ॥18.3॥

tyājyaṃ doṣavadityeke karma prāhurmanīṣiṇaḥyajñadānatapaḥkarma na tyājyamiti cāpare

Meaning

Some thinkers say all action should be abandoned because action is flawed; others say acts of yajna (sacred offering), charity and self-discipline should never be given up.

हिंदी में अर्थ

कुछ विचारक कहते हैं कि हर कर्म में दोष होता है, इसलिए कर्म छोड़ देना चाहिए; कुछ कहते हैं कि यज्ञ, दान और तप जैसे कर्म कभी नहीं छोड़ने चाहिए।

Practise it today

When you hear two strong opinions today, pause before taking a side and list one good point in each.

Reflect tonight

Did you hold back from jumping to one side today? What did you notice in the other view?
