🔆Bhagavad Gita: Chapter 2, Verse 56:
दु:खेष्वनुद्विग्नमना: सुखेषु विगतस्पृह: |
वीतरागभयक्रोध: स्थितधीर्मुनिरुच्यते || 56||
duḥkheṣhv-anudvigna-manāḥ sukheṣhu vigata-spṛihaḥ
vīta-rāga-bhaya-krodhaḥ sthita-dhīr munir uchyate
🪔The silent sage is said to have stable wisdom when sufferings no longer perturb his mind, when he ceases to cling to pleasures, and he is rid of attachment, fear and wrath.

🔆Bhagavad Gita: Chapter 2, Verse 57:
य: सर्वत्रानभिस्नेहस्तत्तत्प्राप्य शुभाशुभम् |
नाभिनन्दति न द्वेष्टि तस्य प्रज्ञा प्रतिष्ठिता || 57||
yaḥ sarvatrānabhisnehas tat tat prāpya śhubhāśhubham
nābhinandati na dveṣhṭi tasya prajñā pratiṣhṭhitā
🪔His wisdom is stable who clings to nothing good or evil when these occur to him; he neither seeks nor shuns them.

Doth the winged life destroy;
But he who kisses a joy as it flies
Lives in eternity's sun rise!"

[dipalibiswas]

Am speechless. Like you said Swamiji, 'if only I can put to practice the advice given by you ". It's not that I don't want to, but due to impure mind, maybe, this behaviour happens.
Koti koti Pranam to you Swamiji. 🙏🙏🙏
