Krishna’s prescription is clear: engage fully in life, yet maintain an inner detachment. Perform every action as an offering, without selfish motive or expectation. In this way, the mind remains balanced—steady in triumph or defeat, joy or sorrow. https://t.co/KdOUGTxUfa

Cremation ground is the place where all names, all forms, all social identities, all stories people tell about themselves — all of it — is reduced to ash. The body that was called beautiful or ugly, powerful or powerless, beloved or despised, ends here. https://t.co/D3MJSWe56b
