Bhagavad Gita, Chapter 6, Verse 2

Krishna said

यं संन्यासमिति प्राहुर्योगं तं विद्धि पाण्डव।न ह्यसंन्यस्तसङ्कल्पो योगी भवति कश्चन ॥6.2॥

yaṃ saṃnyāsamiti prāhuryogaṃ taṃ viddhi pāṇḍavana hyasaṃnyastasaṅkalpo yogī bhavati kaścana

Meaning

Krishna tells Arjuna: what people call renunciation, know that to be yoga. No one becomes a yogi without letting go of selfish planning and scheming for personal gain.

हिंदी में अर्थ

श्रीकृष्ण अर्जुन से कहते हैं: जिसे लोग संन्यास कहते हैं, उसी को योग समझो। जब तक कोई अपने स्वार्थ भरे संकल्प और योजनाएँ नहीं छोड़ता, तब तक वह योगी नहीं बनता।

Practise it today

Notice one moment today when you are quietly planning how to come out ahead of someone. Drop that plan and simply do your part honestly.

Reflect tonight

When did you catch yourself scheming for advantage today? What did it feel like to let it go?
