Bhagavad Gita, Chapter 2, Verse 31

Krishna said
स्वधर्ममपि चावेक्ष्य न विकम्पितुमर्हसि।धर्म्याद्धि युद्धाछ्रेयोऽन्यत्क्षत्रियस्य न विद्यते ॥2.31॥

svadharmamapi cāvekṣya na vikampitumarhasidharmyāddhi yuddhāchreyo'nyatkṣatriyasya na vidyate

Meaning

Krishna now turns to duty: considering your own dharma (rightful duty) as well, you should not waver. For a warrior, nothing is better than a fight for what is right.

हिंदी में अर्थ

अब श्रीकृष्ण कर्तव्य की बात करते हैं: अपने धर्म को देखते हुए भी तुम्हें डगमगाना नहीं चाहिए। एक क्षत्रिय के लिए धर्म के लिए लड़े जाने वाले युद्ध से बढ़कर कुछ नहीं।

Reflect tonight

What did your role ask of you today, and did you give it fully?
