Bhagavad Gita 2.50

Endowed with wisdom of evenness of mind, one casts off in this life both good and evil deeds.

Theme: Decision Making

"Endowed with wisdom of evenness of mind, one casts off in this life both good and evil deeds. Therefore, devote yourself to yoga; yoga is skill in action."

Modern explanation

In a moment of stillness, receive this: Skill in action is choosing well from a settled mind, not a frantic one.

Practical application

Take ten minutes of full silence. Often the answer was waiting for room to speak.

Reflection question

What is the choice I keep avoiding making — and what would it free up if I made it?
