  10. "Respect for good traits. Kingly respect for money."
    - A bumper sticker

    The sticker is in #Kannada, the local language in #Bengaluru #India. The word in red is misspelled (says "raajaa" instead of "raaja") but still 🫡

  13. If this 10-min number does not make you (want to) move, I'll stop sharing music links. Guaranteed. 🎵

    If you moved to that, also try 5 mins at both 1:18:35 and 1:56:49.

  16. A multilingual website I've been building for a while went live a few days ago. It's a pretty simple site from user perspective but somewhat challenging to build, esp. due to data org to ease site gen, and me learning some of the tech as I build the site.

    Many fixes and features are pending, but I'm happy with the outcome and the initial reception. I'm also humbled by the opportunity to work with and learn from a great scholar in the subject matter, and pleased to be able to use my time and knowledge for a worthy cause. 🙇‍♂️

  17. @yvanspijk Just adding:

    * #Sanskrit "wada" (वद) means "to say"
    * #Kannada "pada" (ಪದ) means 'word"
    * #Telugu "padam" (పదం) means 'word"

  18. Renunciation of work and devotion to work, are both liberating. But of those two, devotion to work is better.
    - Sri Krishna, 5-2

    Me: Simply put, this verse promotes being engaged over being withdrawn.

    #Sanskrit
    संन्यासः कर्मयोगश्च निःश्रेयसकरावुभौ ।
    तयोस्तु कर्मसंन्यासात्कर्मयोगो विशिष्यते ॥

    #Kannada script:
    ಸಂನ್ಯಾಸಃ ಕರ್ಮಯೋಗಶ್ಚ ನಿಃಶ್ರೇಯಸಕರಾವುಭೌ |
    ತಯೋಸ್ತು ಕರ್ಮಸಂನ್ಯಾಸಾತ್ಕರ್ಮಯೋಗೋ ವಿಶಿಷ್ಯತೇ ||

  19. One who is sincere [in effort] and has control of [their] senses attains knowledge.
    - Sri Krishna, 4-39

    #Sanskrit: श्रद्धावान् लभते ज्ञानं तत्परः संयतेंद्रियः
    #Kannada script: ಶ್ರದ್ಧಾವಾನ್ ಲಭತೇ ಜ್ಞಾನಂ ತತ್ಪರಃ ಸಂಯತೇಂದ್ರಿಯಃ

    PS: The following adaption is common:
    - The sincere ones attain knowledge; the knowledgeable ones achieve success.
    - श्रद्धावान् लभते ज्ञानं ज्ञानावान् लभते यशम्
    - ಶ್ರದ್ಧಾವಾನ್ ಲಭತೇ ಜ್ಞಾನಂ ಜ್ಞಾನಾವಾನ್ ಲಭತೇ ಯಶಂ

    #philosophy #easternPhilosophy #gita #sincerity #control #knowledge

  20. Nothing compares to (purity of) knowledge.
    - Sri Krishna, 4-38

    Literally: Nothing exists that equals the purity [sanctity] of knowledge.

    #Sanskrit: न हि ज्ञानेन सदृशं (पवित्रमिह विद्यते)
    #Kannada script: ನ ಹಿ ಜ್ಞಾನೇನ ಸದೃಶಂ (ಪವಿತ್ರಮಿಹ ವಿದ್ಯತೇ)

    Trivia: The phrase "na hi jnyaanaena sadrusham" (the first four words of Verse 4-38) is frequently the motto/slogan of schools and colleges in India (and it was for my school).

  21. Sacrifice [in pursuit] of knowledge is superior to material sacrifice because the entirety of all actions [activities] can only culminate in knowledge.
    - Sri Krishna, 4-33

    #Sanskrit
    श्रेयांद्रव्यमयाद्यज्ञात् ज्ञानयाज्ञः परंतप ।
    सर्वं कर्माखिलां पार्थ ज्ञाने परिसमाप्तते ॥

    #Kannada script:
    ಶ್ರೇಯಾಂದ್ರವ್ಯಮಯಾದ್ಯಜ್ಞಾತ್ ಜ್ಞಾನಯಾಜ್ಞಃ ಪರಂತಪ |
    ಸರ್ವಂ ಕರ್ಮಾಖಿಲಾಂ ಪಾರ್ಥ ಜ್ಞಾನೇ ಪರಿಸಮಾಪ್ತತೇ ||

    #philosophy #easternPhilosophy #gita #sacrifice #knowledge

  22. True sustenance [satisfaction, achievement] is in service and such sustenance [service] is how one reaches the pinnacle*.
    - Sri Krishna, 4-31

    *The actual word used is "brahma" (ब्रह्म ಬ್ರಹ್ಮ), which here means pinnacle.

    PS: Verses 4-25 through 4-30 [omitted from this thread] describe some ways one can offer service.

    #Sanskrit: यज्ञशिष्टामृतभुजो यांति ब्रह्म सनातनं
    #Kannada script: ಯಜ್ಞಶಿಷ್ಟಾಮೃತಭುಜೋ ಯಾಂತಿ ಬ್ರಹ್ಮ ಸನಾತನಂ

    #philosophy #easternPhilosophy #gita #service #satisfaction #achievement

  23. The learned [people] consider as wise those who perform all activities with a burning desire for knowledge, detached from expectations of outcomes.
    - Sri Krishna, 4-19

    #Sanskrit:
    यस्य सर्वे समारंभाः कामसंकल्पवर्जिताः ।
    ज्ञानाग्निदग्धकर्माणां तमाहुः पंडितं बुधाः ॥

    #Kannada script:
    ಯಸ್ಯ ಸರ್ವೇ ಸಮಾರಂಭಾಃ ಕಾಮಸಂಕಲ್ಪವರ್ಜಿತಾಃ |
    ಜ್ಞಾನಾಗ್ನಿದಗ್ಧಕರ್ಮಾಣಾಂ ತಮಾಹುಃ ಪಂಡಿತಂ ಬುಧಾಃ ||

  24. Action is inaction and inaction is action. The wise see both as one and carry them out so.
    - Sri Krishna, 4-18

    PS: Answers the question in 4-16 ☝️

    #Sanskrit:
    कर्मण्यकर्म यः पश्येदकर्मणि च कर्म य ।
    स बुद्धिमान्मनुष्येषु स युक्त: कृत्स्नकर्मकृत् ॥

    #Kannada script:
    ಕರ್ಮಣ್ಯಕರ್ಮ ಯಃ ಪಶ್ಯೇದಕರ್ಮಣಿ ಚ ಕರ್ಮ ಯ |
    ಸ ಬುದ್ಧಿಮಾನ್ಮನುಷ್ಯೇಷು ಸ ಯುಕ್ತ: ಕೃತ್ಸ್ನಕರ್ಮಕೃತ್ ||

    #philosophy #easternPhilosophy #gita #action #wisdom #awareness

  25. What is action and what is inaction? This question has fascinated even the scholars*.
    - Sri Krishna, 4-16

    *Literally "kawayoh" (कवयो) means "poets", but "scholars" fits better in this context.

    #Sanskrit: किं कर्म किमकर्मेति कवयोsप्यत्र मोहिताः
    #Kannada script: ಕಿಂ ಕರ್ಮ ಕಿಮಕರ್ಮೇತಿ ಕವಯೋsಪ್ಯತ್ರ ಮೋಹಿತಾಃ

    #philosophy #easternPhilosophy #gita #action #wisdom #awareness

  26. The senses are higher than the body; the mind is higher than the senses. Above the mind is intellect, and above the intellect is self*.
    - Sri Krishna, 3-42

    *consistent with verse 3-38 ☝️. Can also be interpreted as "consciousness".

    #Sanskrit:
    इंद्रियाणि परण्याहुरिंद्रियेभ्यः परं मनः ।
    मनसस्तु परा बुद्धिर्यो बुद्धेः परतस्तु सः ॥

    #Kannada script:
    ಇಂದ್ರಿಯಾಣಿ ಪರಣ್ಯಾಹುರಿಂದ್ರಿಯೇಭ್ಯಃ ಪರಂ ಮನಃ |
    ಮನಸಸ್ತು ಪರಾ ಬುದ್ಧಿರ್ಯೋ ಬುದ್ಧೇಃ ಪರತಸ್ತು ಸಃ ||

    #philosophy #easternPhilosophy #gita #knowledge #consciousness #hierarchy

  27. Just as fire is covered by smoke and similarly a mirror is obscured by dust, just as the embryo rests deep within the womb, knowledge is likewise hidden by self [selfishness].
    - Sri Krishna, 3-38

    #Sanskrit:
    धूमेनाव्रियते वह्निर्यथादर्शो मलेन च ।
    यथोल्बेनावृतो गर्भस्तथा तेनेदमावृतं ॥

    #Kannada script:
    ಧೂಮೇನಾವ್ರಿಯತೇ ವಹ್ನಿರ್ಯಥಾದರ್ಶೋ ಮಲೇನ ಚ |
    ಯಥೋಲ್ಬೇನಾವೃತೋ ಗರ್ಭಸ್ತಥಾ ತೇನೇದಮಾವೃತಂ ||

    #philosophy #easternPhilosophy #gita #knowledge #selfishness

  28. It is better to progress in one's own path than to follow another's. There is learning in failing in own path but anxiety if following another's.
    - Sri Krishna, 3-35

    #Sanskrit:
    श्रेयान्स्वधर्मो विगुणः परधर्मात्स्वनुष्ठितात् ।
    स्वधर्मे निधनं श्रेयः परधर्मो भयावहः ॥

    #Kannada script:
    ಶ್ರೇಯಾನ್ಸ್ವಧರ್ಮೋ ವಿಗುಣಃ ಪರಧರ್ಮಾತ್ಸ್ವನುಷ್ಠಿತಾತ್ |
    ಸ್ವಧರ್ಮೇ ನಿಧನಂ ಶ್ರೇಯಃ ಪರಧರ್ಮೋ ಭಯಾವಹಃ ||

    #philosophy #easternPhilosophy #gita #dedication #focus #awareness

  29. [Even] the wise act within the limitations of their own nature.
    - Sri Krishna, 3-33

    #Sanskrit: स्वदृशं चेष्टते स्वस्याः प्रकृतेर्ज्ञानवानपि
    #Kannada script: ಸ್ವದೃಶಂ ಚೇಷ್ಟತೇ ಸ್ವಸ್ಯಾಃ ಪ್ರಕೃತೇರ್ಜ್ಞಾನವಾನಪಿ

    #philosophy #easternPhilosophy #gita #discretion #wisdom #awareness

  30. The way outstanding people conduct [themselves], they set standards for the world to follow.
    - Sri Krishna, 3-21

    #Sanskrit:
    यद्यदाचरति श्रेष्ठस्तत्तदेवेतरो जनः ।
    स यत्प्रमाणं कुरुते लोकस्तदनुवर्तते ॥

    #Kannada script:
    ಯದ್ಯದಾಚರತಿ ಶ್ರೇಷ್ಠಸ್ತತ್ತದೇವೇತರೋ ಜನಃ |
    ಸ ಯತ್ಪ್ರಮಾಣಂ ಕುರುತೇ ಲೋಕಸ್ತದನುವರ್ತತೇ ||
