Lord Krishna, a central figure in Hinduism, is known for imparting spiritual wisdom and guidance in the Bhagavad Gita. Here are some impactful quotes attributed to Lord Krishna
“You have a right to perform your prescribed duties, but you are not entitled to the fruits of your actions.”
“Set thy heart upon thy work, but never on its reward.”
“The soul is neither born, and, once born, it never dies. It is without birth and eternal, and is not slain when the body is slain.”
“Do everything you have to do, but not with greed, not with ego, not with lust, not with envy but with love, compassion, humility, and devotion.”
“In the soul, there is neither male nor female. Neither is there cause for physical beauty or unattractiveness. It is beyond color and form, and it is not limited by any characteristics.”
“The mind is restless and difficult to restrain, but it is subdued by practice.”
“Those who are free from anger and all material desires, who are self-realized, self-disciplined and constantly endeavoring for perfection, are assured of liberation in the Supreme in the very near future.”
“One who has control over the mind is tranquil in heat and cold, in pleasure and pain, and in honor and dishonor; and is ever steadfast with the Supreme Self.”
“A person can rise through the efforts of his own mind; he can also sink, through the same mind. Because the mind is the friend of the conditioned soul, and his enemy as well.”
“Perform your obligatory duty, because action is indeed better than inaction.”
These quotes capture the essence of Krishna`s teachings, emphasizing selfless action, devotion, and the realization of the eternal nature of the soul.
