Live the Teachings

Simple ways to bring the Gītā into your day, taken from Prabhupāda's translations and purports.

  1. 1Pick what's on your mind
  2. 2Try one teaching today

What's on your mind today?

Tap the one closest to you.

Or take one teaching for today

Read it, try it, think about it. That's all.

Bhagavad-gītā 2.47 · Duty & integrity

Work without owning the outcome

Krishna distinguishes our responsibility to perform prescribed action from entitlement to its results.

Try this today

Set an intention for excellent effort without obsessing about applause or reward.

Ask yourself

Which result is pulling my attention away from right action?

Keep in mind: Detachment does not excuse neglecting consequences, quality, or accountability.
