Not brooding over the past, not worrying about the future, and staying calmly unaffected in the present: these are the marks of one who is free while living.
What it means
Regret pulls us backward and anxiety pulls us forward. Freedom looks like resting in this moment, without clinging even to what it brings. The present is where life happens.हिंदी में अर्थ
बीते हुए को न कुरेदना, आने वाले की चिंता न करना और जो मिला है उसमें भी उदासीन रहना, यह जीवन्मुक्त का लक्षण है।
पछतावा पीछे खींचता है और चिंता आगे। आज़ादी है इसी पल में टिकना, और जो यह पल लाए उससे भी चिपके बिना।
Spoken by Adi Shankaracharya.
