It’s no surprise that modern-day life can be really busy.

With all the endless notifications, stress from work, personal setbacks and a desire for more in life… it’s simple to feel a bit adrift.

Here’s the amazing thing:
The answers to these problems were explained more than 5000 years ago in the Bhagavad Gita.

This religious work is not limited to religion or thought.
Today, with life moving so quickly and becoming more complicated, the book offers guidance to anyone seeking inner peace, self-understanding or a reason for living.

We will now see how the principles of the Gita guide us through life as it is today.

What Does the Bhagavad Gita Teach, Basically?
Lord Krishna and Arjuna have a conversation in the Bhagavad Gita, just before Arjuna faces an enormous battle. Arjuna doesn’t know what to do, feels overtaken by his emotions and is caught between doing his duty and being a good man.


The spiritual development and purity which Dharma teaches use a lotus as their symbolic representation.
Kalki carries a sword to represent his Shakti force because he is depicted riding a white horse for battles against social injustice.
The transition from orange to blue in the color scheme represents both dynamic energy and peaceful tranquility which corresponds to the governance of power alongside righteousness.
The revised artwork includes tamed flames and an added serene environment with water elements and a twilight setting that creates a peaceful atmosphere despite preserving essential symbolism.

00:12With all the endless notifications, stress from work, personal setbacks and a desire for more in life
00:19It's simple to feel a bit adrift
00:21Here's the amazing thing
00:23The answers to these problems were explained more than 5000 years ago in the Bhagavad Gita
00:29This religious work is not limited to religion or thought
00:33Today, with life moving so quickly and becoming more complicated
00:38The book offers guidance to anyone seeking inner peace, self-understanding or a reason for living
00:44We will now see how the principles of the Gita guide us through life as it is today
00:50What does the Bhagavad Gita teach?
00:53Basically, Lord Krishna and Arjuna have a conversation in the Bhagavad Gita
00:58Just before Arjuna faces an enormous battle
01:02Arjuna doesn't know what to do
01:04Feels overtaken by his emotions
01:06And is caught between doing his duty and being a good man
01:10Sound familiar?
01:11All of us have experienced times when we didn't know what action to take
01:15Who we were or what was truly important
01:18It isn't only a religious book
01:20The Gita teaches us about human life
01:23Sparkles 1
01:25Having inner clarity makes someone strong
01:28Difficulty for the modern individual
01:31Feeling lost, anxious and uncertain about who they are
01:35The Gita's teaching
01:37Learn about who you are
01:38The eternal self is who you are and not the body or the mind
01:43In our present world, we usually identify ourselves with
01:47Job titles
01:48People interacting with our content by liking it
01:52External success
01:53Even so, the Gita teaches that your real self is greater than your actions or appearance
02:00Connecting with your higher spirit makes you firmer in your decisions
02:04At peace and more confident
02:06You begin self-discovery by looking deeper within yourself
02:10Away from everything else
02:12Crossed swords 2
02:13Take action
02:15Release your anxiety about the final outcome
02:18People nowadays feel pressure to achieve their goals
02:21And are afraid to fail
02:22As the Gita says in chapter 2, verse 47
02:26You may choose your duties
02:28But not the rewards you get for them
02:30This improves everything we do
02:33We worry so much about our career success
02:36How many likes we have
02:38How well we do financially
02:39And results in general
02:41Yet Krishna teaches Arjuna to concentrate on what must be done
02:45Rather than on what will happen
02:47Why?
02:49We can choose our hard work
02:50But not always control the outcome
02:52Thinking this way relieves anxiety
02:55And supports us in doing things for a reason
02:57Not something we feel we have to do
03:003. Balance is part of living spiritually
03:03Modern problem
03:05Burnout
03:06Always thinking too much
03:07And not experiencing peace
03:09Lesson from Gita
03:11Being balanced is central to yoga
03:13Chapter 2, verse 48
03:16Whether we are at work
03:17With friends
03:18Or praying
03:19Finding balance
03:21Helps us a lot
03:22The book suggests
03:23Living a balanced
03:24And thoughtful life
03:25Neither too much
03:27Nor too little
03:28This matters a lot today
03:30When hustle culture
03:32Makes burnout seem attractive
03:34Real growth appears
03:35When we zero in
03:36On important actions
03:38Staying calm
03:39And steady
03:39As we go
03:404. Click on that link
03:43Walk toward your life's direction
03:45Common people problems
03:46Lacking confidence
03:48Fearing criticism
03:49Changing nothing
03:51The simple lesson is that
03:53It is better to follow your own purpose
03:55Flawed than to be perfect in a role
03:57That isn't right for you
03:58A lot of us are letting other people's views
04:01Family pressure
04:03Or fear of failure guide our lives
04:04Krishna instructs Arjuna to take action
04:08Even though it will be hard sometimes
04:10Nobody has a dharma just like yours
04:13You don't have to be flawless to be loved
04:15Because true love loves your true self
04:175. Surrendering doesn't make you weak
04:21It's power
04:22The new problem in education
04:24Experiencing disconnection from one's reason
04:27For pursuing education
04:29Gita teaches us that we should surrender to her
04:32I am here to direct you and defend you
04:35Chapter 18, verse 66
04:38Surrender doesn't require you to stop trying
04:41It should lead you to let go of your desperate need for control
04:45And trust a higher authority
04:47No matter if you call it God
04:49The universe
04:50Life
04:51Or Krishna
04:52It's important to feel connected while working toward your best
04:55Offering surrender to God helps you find peace
04:59Through the mehem
04:59And uncertainty of life
05:01At the end
05:02Ancient guidance for modern problems
05:05The Bhagavad Gita isn't limited to being a book alone
05:09It helps people transform
05:11Keep in mind that being spiritual helps you handle the world with alertness
05:15Resilience and a clearer idea of your true self
05:19If you're experiencing feelings of stuckness, anxiety or confusion
05:23Perhaps you could benefit from returning to your inner battlefield
05:27As Arjuna did
05:29All you need to do is look inside yourself
05:31The Gita brings back the messages to your mind
05:35Wanting to look deeper into who you really are
05:38You don't need to wait for things to be ideal before taking action
05:41Start small
05:43Look at one verse
05:44Reflect
05:45Ask questions
05:47Meditate
05:48Write
05:49Be curious
05:50Spirituality
05:52Really
05:52Doesn't invite us to escape from life
05:55It encourages us to be more aware and present
05:59It objects
05:59And
