Quote of the day from Bhagavad Gita: "You have the right to perform your duty, but not to the fruits of your actions"

Bhagavad Gita, a sacred text that is full of teachings and knowledge given by Lord Krishna to Arjuna in the battlefield of Kurukshetra. One of the most profound teachings of the Bhagavad Gita is "You have the right to perform your duty, but not to the fruits of your actions". Let's understand the meaning of this statement and why is it useful in today's world. This statement explains about the great philosophy of life including success, work, personal and professional life. Here, Lord Krishna was guiding Arjuna to act wisely and don't think about the result. This statement was given by Lord Krishna to Arjuna when they were present in the battlefield of Kurukshetra and this quote is taken from the chapter 2, verse 47. Lord Krishna explained this to Arjuna when he was full of doubts and emotional and encouraged him to just perform his duty and do not think what is going to happen after this because he was fighting against his own family members. Lord Krishna explained him the importance of Karma, which is the path of selfless action and motivated Arjuna to fulfill his duties, responsibilities without even getting involved in thinking about the outcome of this karma.According to Bhagavad Gita, duty means to fulfill your righteous responsibilities as per your role and life's situation. For example: if you are working then your main thing is to focus on your work and deliver it dedicatedly because you are getting paid for your work and if you are leader of this country then your duty is to fulfill the requirement of the people In Bhagavad Gita, Krishna emphasised that you can not escape from your actions because every moment you are doing some action that involves karma but your thought process behind that action matters a lot. The fruits of your actions that means the result, reward and failure and recognition can not be decided or controlled. It is clearly stated in Bhagavad Gita that the result of your karma depend upon many factor such as time, past karma, situations and divine guidance so this can not controlled by a human and they should simply leave it on the divine power and do not waste their time in thinking what will happen in future. But they can control their karma by doing the righteous things in life.
