Bhagavad Gita, Chapter 2, Verse 59
विषया विनिवर्तन्ते निराहारस्य देहिनः।रसवर्जं रसोऽप्यस्य परं दृष्ट्वा निवर्तते ॥2.59॥viṣayā vinivartante nirāhārasya dehinaḥrasavarjaṃ raso'pyasya paraṃ dṛṣṭvā nivartate
Meaning
Krishna says: when a person stops indulging the senses, the objects fall away, but the inner taste for them remains. Even that taste disappears once the person experiences the Supreme.
हिंदी में अर्थ
श्रीकृष्ण कहते हैं: जब कोई इंद्रियों के विषयों से दूर रहता है, तो विषय तो छूट जाते हैं, पर उनका स्वाद मन में बचा रहता है। परम सत्य का अनुभव होने पर वह स्वाद भी मिट जाता है।
Practise it today
Instead of only fighting one bad habit today, add something better in its place, a walk, music or a call to a friend, that fills you more deeply.
Reflect tonight
What deeper joy did you try today in place of an old craving?
