Bhagavad Gita 3.21

Whatever a great person does, others follow.

Theme: Relationships

"Whatever a great person does, others follow. Whatever standard they set, the world pursues."

Modern explanation

As the day quiets, hold this: You teach the people around you how to treat you and each other by what you do, not what you say.

Practical application

Replay one interaction and consider it from the other person's interior. Notice what shifts.

Reflection question

Who treated me with grace today, and how can I pass it on tomorrow?
