Bhagavad Gita, Chapter 2, Verse 19

Krishna said

य एनं वेत्ति हन्तारं यश्चैनं मन्यते हतम्।उभौ तौ न विजानीतो नायं हन्ति न हन्यते ॥2.19॥

ya enaṃ vetti hantāraṃ yaścainaṃ manyate hatamubhau tau na vijānīto nāyaṃ hanti na hanyate

Meaning

Krishna says: whoever thinks the self is a killer, and whoever thinks the self can be killed, both fail to understand. The self neither kills nor is killed.

हिंदी में अर्थ

श्रीकृष्ण कहते हैं: जो आत्मा को मारने वाला समझता है और जो उसे मरने वाला समझता है, दोनों ही नहीं जानते। आत्मा न मारती है, न मारी जाती है।

Practise it today

When an insult or setback stings today, remind yourself: "This touches my situation, not my deepest self." Then respond from that calmer place.

Reflect tonight

Did any hurt today feel smaller once you separated it from who you are?
