उत्तिष्ठ Uttishtha
Arise with knowledge from the Gita & Upanishads
Let feelings pass; stay steady within.
मात्रास्पर्शास्तु कौन्तेय शीतोष्णसुखदुःखदाः । आगमापायिनोऽनित्यास्तांस्तितिक्षस्व भारत ॥
Bhagavad Gita 2.14
Cold and heat, pleasure and pain come from the senses meeting their objects. They come and go and do not last. Bear them patiently, O Bharata.
Pleasure and pain are temporary; they come and go like the weather. Let them pass without letting them control your mood or actions.
Pause for five seconds before reacting to a challenge or stress.
