Bhagavad Gita 6.38 meaning
kachchin nobhayavibhrashtash chinnabhram iva nashyati
apratishtho mahabaho vimoodho brahmanah pathi
कच्चिन्नोभयविभ्रष्टश्छिन्नाभ्रमिव नश्यति।
अप्रतिष्ठो महाबाहो विमूढो ब्रह्मणः पथि॥
Mighty Krishna, having fallen from both paths, without footing and confused on the way to Brahman, does such a person not perish like a scattered cloud?
What it means
The fear here is of ending up with nothing: neither worldly success nor spiritual progress. It is the anxiety of anyone who has taken a risk on a different path.How it helps in real life
- Big decisions: Left a stable job for music and now scared you'll have neither? Write down what you've already gained, and set a one-year checkpoint.
- When you are worried: Took a career break to raise kids and fear you're left behind? List the skills you've built at home, and take one short course.
हिंदी में अर्थ
हे महाबाहु, दोनों रास्तों से भटका हुआ, बिना सहारे का और ब्रह्म के मार्ग में भ्रमित व्यक्ति क्या फटे हुए बादल की तरह नष्ट नहीं हो जाता?
यहाँ डर है कुछ न मिलने का: न दुनिया की सफलता, न आध्यात्मिक प्रगति। यह हर उस व्यक्ति की चिंता है जिसने अलग राह पर जोखिम लिया है।
Spoken by Arjuna.
