Practical Step
Whatever pain or difficulty you are experiencing right now, know that it is temporary — like a passing season. Instead of trying to escape the feeling, practice simply witnessing it without being swept away. Remind yourself: 'This too shall pass, and I am the calm witness beneath it all.'
मात्रास्पर्शास्तु कौन्तेय शीतोष्णसुखदुःखदाः। आगमापायिनोऽनित्यास्तांस्तितिक्षस्व भारत॥
matra-sparsas tu kaunteya sitosna-sukha-duhkha-dah, agamapayino 'nityas tams titiksasva bharata
हिंदी अर्थ
हे कौन्तेय, सर्दी-गर्मी और सुख-दुख ये सभी इन्द्रिय और विषयों के संपर्क से उत्पन्न होते हैं। ये आने-जाने वाले और अनित्य हैं, इसलिए हे भारत, तुम इन्हें सहन करो।
English Meaning
O son of Kunti, the nonpermanent appearance of happiness and distress, and their disappearance in due course, are like the appearance and disappearance of winter and summer seasons. They arise from sense perception, O scion of Bharata, and one must learn to tolerate them without being disturbed.
