Bhagavad Gita Series: Equanimity

The short lecture gives a brief background on the concept of equanimity. The Gita states that one must remain unmoved by the ups and downs of life, as it is an inevitable part of this reality. Only in a state of remaining equal under all circumstances can we strive towards inner peace. The Bhagavad Gita Series explores the teachings contained within the Bhagavad Gita that help guide our journey towards an understanding of our True Nature.

To me it’s not so much about learning to not get too excited about either the joy or the pain but to really feel it both with the surrending mindset and the knowing it passes. It’s all for us. For our growth and exoension. I like thevassociation of equanimity to the idea of not taking life’s experiences so seriously :-)
Why would I like to learn technics to stay numb ? If I wanted numbness I would not have chosen to live as a human. I want to feel it all as intensely as I can knowing it’s just experiences but not who I am in truth.

Really enjoying this series. In this talk, he beautifully & simply describes the hot & cold nature of life we all experience.

Thank you for this reading on equanimity. Its simplicity is both challenging and comforting.
Namaste,
