Bhagavad Gita, Chapter 5, Verse 12

Krishna said

युक्तः कर्मफलं त्यक्त्वा शान्तिमाप्नोति नैष्ठिकीम्।अयुक्तः कामकारेण फले सक्तो निबध्यते ॥5.12॥

yuktaḥ karmaphalaṃ tyaktvā śāntimāpnoti naiṣṭhikīmayuktaḥ kāmakāreṇa phale sakto nibadhyate

Meaning

Krishna says: the steady person, giving up the fruit of action, gains lasting peace. The unsteady person, driven by desire and attached to results, becomes bound.

हिंदी में अर्थ

श्रीकृष्ण कहते हैं: जो योग में स्थिर है, वह कर्म के फल का मोह छोड़कर स्थायी शांति पाता है। जो स्थिर नहीं है, वह इच्छा के वश में होकर फल से चिपका रहता है और बँध जाता है।

Practise it today

Reflect tonight

Were you able to stop checking on that result? How did your peace of mind change?
