Yogasthah Kuru Karmaniयोगस्थः कुरु कर्माणि

Bhagavad Gita 2.48 teaches a devotional principle from Krishna’s dialogue with Arjuna.

  1. Bhagavad Gita 2.48

    योगस्थः कुरु कर्माणि सङ्गं त्यक्त्वा धनञ्जय । सिद्ध्यसिद्ध्योः समो भूत्वा समत्वं योग उच्यते ॥

    भावार्थ

    हे धनंजय, आसक्ति छोड़कर योग में स्थित होकर कर्म करो। सफलता और असफलता में समभाव रखो; इसी समता को योग कहते हैं।

    Meaning

    Act with steadiness in yoga, giving up attachment, Arjuna. Treat success and failure alike; this evenness is called yoga.

You have the right to perform your duties, but not to the results. Focus on your work without attachment to the outcome.
