Selflessness from "summary" of Shrimad Bhagwat Geeta - Gita Saar (Hindi) 2020: भाग 6 by पं. रवि शर्मा
Selflessness is a concept that is deeply rooted in the teachings of the Bhagavad Gita. It is the idea of putting others before oneself, of acting without selfish desires or motives. When one is selfless, they act out of a sense of duty and service, rather than for personal gain. In the Bhagavad Gita, Lord Krishna teaches Arjuna the importance of selflessness in his actions. He explains that one should perform their duties without attachment to the fruits of their actions. This means that one should not be motivated by the desire for personal gain or recognition, but rather by a desire to serve others and uphold righteousness. Selflessness is not just about being generous or sacrificing one's own needs for the sake of others. It is about having a mindset of compassion and empathy towards all beings, and acting in a way that is in harmony with the greater good. When one acts selflessly, they are able to transcend their own ego and connect with the divine within themselves and others. By practicing selflessness, one can cultivate a sense of inner peace and fulfillment. When our actions are guided by love and compassion, we are able to break free from the cycle of selfish desires and attachments that cause suffering. Selflessness allows us to experience a deeper sense of connection with the world around us and live in harmony with the universal laws of dharma.
