Geeta

This thousands of year old epic can still leave a positive energy on our minds on the condition if we read and implement it carefully.....................

1. Why do you worry? Whom / what do you fear? Who can kill you / harm you? The soul is never born... nor is it subject to death.

2. What has happened, has happened for some good (in the long run). What is happening is also for some good, and what will happen, will be also for your good. So, don't repent about the past, neither worry about the future. The present is here, so live it.

3. What have you lost that you grieve? What did you bring along (at your birth) that you lost? What did you produce / created (on your own without God's grace) that has bee
n destroyed?? You never brought anything along (materialistic things / emotions / etc). Whatever you gained, you gained it from here (the world). Whatever you loose/lost, you lost it here only. (you don't take anything along at your death). Whatever you gained, you gained from God, and whatever you lost, you lost it to Him. You came empty handed, and you leave empty handed. What is yours today, will belong to someone else tomorrow and to another person at some other time. What you take as yours (the material things / emotions / relations etc.) and feel so contended, those very things and the feeling of contention resulting from such thoughts, are the real cause of your sufferings.

4. Change is the essence of Life / world. What you think as Death, is in fact a new beginning in itself, a new life. In one moment you (may) become a millionaire, the next moment you (may) become poor. Remove such (extreme) emotions / thoughts like.... yours & mine, big & small (great & small), ours & yours, etc.... then you will see that all belongs to you and you belong to all. (Like Buddha’s philosophy of middle-path and balance)

5. Neither this body is yours nor you (soul) belongs to this body. It is composed of / made from Fire, Water, Air, Earth and Space and will dissolve into these (at your death). But soul is eternal, then WHO ARE YOU ?? Surrender yourself to the God (Brahma). This is the best refuge / support. He who knoweth this refuge / support, he is absolved of all fear, worries, sufferings, sorrow.

6. Whatever you do, just surrender your achievements (or perceived loss / failure) to that lord. This way you will experience eternal bliss void of any EGO (and desires and sorrows).
