ઉત્પત્તિ અને કથા

Bhagavad Gita Chapter 2, Verse 14 · Bhagavan Sri Krishna (as recorded by Maharishi Veda Vyasa) · Ancient (part of the Mahabharata, c. 5th–2nd century BCE in present form)

Spoken on the battlefield of Kurukshetra, this is among Krishna's first instructions to the grief-stricken Arjuna in the Sankhya Yoga chapter. Having explained the eternity of the soul, Krishna now turns to the practical discipline of enduring the body's dualities. The teaching of titiksha became a cornerstone of Vedanta's spiritual training, echoed by sages and Acharyas across the ages.
