How can Bhagavad Gita help me in my daily life?

A deluded mind cannot get clarity on its own, it can happen only through grace. A mind that is drowning in delusion needs handholding. When life seems like a battle, Bhagavad Gita can help the seeker come out of misery and find equanimity. It helps you attain many skills which will enhance your actions because it is the actions which bring happiness or sorrow. When you are skillful in your action, then it will bring you happiness, or less misery. In a world full of cravings and aversions, it is easy to find the attachment in material and lose track of our lives. 
The Bhagavad Gita is for anyone who wants to succeed, approach any given situation with level-headedness and skill, and find the sparkle within oneself. 

How does Bhagavad Gita help me in my studies and career?

Whether you’re a student or a career professional, the Bhagavad Gita can help you empower yourself with refined skills to blossom completely. Arjuna was a skilled warrior, perfected in his craft, yet his path was marred by obstacles and confusions. It was in Lord Krishna’s words that he found guidance, which led him to the ultimate victory. The first formula is definitely the most important one, work is worship. Whatever you do, give your 100 percent and remain unperturbed by whatever the outcome may be. Align your mind and grit towards the work, and do not worry about its outcome. Often a student’s mind gets easily distracted and wanders and this tendency of the mind is a hindrance to achieving anything in life. Perfection is a result of one-pointed focus and being steady and content. The Bhagavad Gita talks about immersing in knowledge as it dispels ignorance in the mind. 

Can Bhagavad Gita help me improve my relationships? How?

Strong and healthy relationships make for a balanced and happy individual. Often the root cause of unhappy relationships is traced to attachments and expectations. Arjuna and Lord Krishna exemplified the relationship of a Guru-shishya and that of friends. Having a deep sense of reverence, like Arjuna had for Krishna, in every relationship helps our consciousness expand and even little things become significant. It saves relationships from distorting. The Bhagavad Gita says the world is a mirror image of your thoughts. Just having faith that I already receive more love than I deserve, appreciating people in our lives, our relationships will become happier. 

What lessons from Bhagavad Gita can be useful at my workplace?

The Bhagavad Gita epitomizes the correct action – of righteousness, of uplifting, of spirit – and an action or duty that ought to be performed even in the most compelling situation. Even on the most stressful of work days, or days when we find no interest or meaning in our work, the Bhagavad Gita urges us to perform our duty with diligence. Often, office politics can hinder work and make life hard at the workplace, but one who has equanimity and steady in one’s own self will not be moved by the surrounding. The Bhagavad Gita also guides us to not be overpowered by our emotions, and distractions, and find the strength within our own self. 

How does Bhagavad Gita help break barriers and become more confident?

Imbibing the principles of the Bhagavad Gita and living by its word brings out an inner strength, which lays dormant in each of us. Every human is meant for excellence, but we need to go deep within and unleash it. The Bhagavad Gita talks about life being transient and impermanent. What is there to fear if everything will return to dust? Having a strong faith and giving up doership keeps us free from worry and guilt. Life is a rollercoaster, take a back seat and just enjoy the ride. One of the important lessons it teaches is to either fight for what you want or not cry for it at all. Living with grit, perseverance, and reverence is the way of the Bhagavad Gita and it can help us get through any battle in life.
