Bhagavad Gita 2.41 meaning
vyavasayatmika buddhir ekeha kurunandana
bahushakha hy-anantash cha buddhayovyavasayinam
व्यवसायात्मिका बुद्धिरेकेह कुरुनन्दन।
बहुशाखा ह्यनन्ताश्च बुद्धयोऽव्यवसायिनाम्॥
Arjuna, a determined mind has a single focus. The minds of the undecided are scattered in countless directions.
What it means
A focused mind is powerful; a scattered mind is exhausted. When we commit to one clear direction, our energy stops leaking away into endless doubts and distractions.How it helps in real life
- Studies & exams: Preparing for UPSC, CAT and a side hustle all at once? Pick one goal for the next six months and drop the rest.
- Phone & habits: Twelve browser tabs and three chats open while working? Close everything except one task and set a forty-minute timer.
हिंदी में अर्थ
हे कुरुनंदन, निश्चय वाली बुद्धि एक ही होती है। जिनका निश्चय नहीं, उनकी बुद्धियाँ अनगिनत शाखाओं में बँटी होती हैं।
एकाग्र मन शक्तिशाली होता है, बिखरा मन थका देता है। जब हम एक साफ़ दिशा चुन लेते हैं, तो हमारी ऊर्जा अनगिनत शंकाओं और भटकावों में नहीं बहती।
Spoken by Krishna.
