Daily Krishna Quote
Start your day with timeless wisdom from the Bhagavad Gita
“The wise grieve neither for the living nor for the dead.”
— Lord Krishna, BG 2.11
What this means
This is not callousness but clarity. The wise understand that the soul is eternal, and excessive grief for what is temporary prevents us from living fully in the present.
