Bhagavad Gita, Chapter 3, Verse 28

Krishna said
तत्त्ववित्तु महाबाहो गुणकर्मविभागयोः।गुणा गुणेषु वर्तन्त इति मत्वा न सज्जते ॥3.28॥

tattvavittu mahābāho guṇakarmavibhāgayoḥguṇā guṇeṣu vartanta iti matvā na sajjate

Meaning

But one who knows the truth about the gunas and their actions, mighty Arjuna, sees that it is only the qualities interacting with qualities, and so does not become attached.

हिंदी में अर्थ

लेकिन हे महाबाहो, जो गुणों और उनके कर्मों का सच जानता है, वह समझता है कि गुण ही गुणों में बरत रहे हैं, और इसलिए वह आसक्त नहीं होता।

Practise it today

When you feel irritated today, pause and label it: "tiredness", "hunger", "hurry". See the feeling as a passing state, not as you.

Reflect tonight

What did you label today? Did naming the state loosen its hold on you?
