Bhagavad Gita 15.7

An eternal fragment of myself, having become a living soul in the world of the living, draws to itself the mind and the senses.

Theme: Grief

"An eternal fragment of myself, having become a living soul in the world of the living, draws to itself the mind and the senses."

Modern explanation

In a moment of stillness, receive this: The spark you loved in someone was never theirs to own or yours to lose; it belongs to the same source that lit you.

Practical application

Place a hand on your heart and say: this hurts because it mattered. Both can be true.

Reflection question

What part of the love stays, no matter what?
