उत्तिष्ठ Uttishtha

Arise with knowledge from the Gita & Upanishads

Recognize the shared self in others; lessen your sense of distance.

यस्तु सर्वाणि भूतान्यात्मन्येवानुपश्यति । सर्वभूतेषु चात्मानं ततो न विजुगुप्सते ॥

Isha Upanishad 6

One who sees all beings in their own self, and their own self in all beings, no longer turns away from anyone in dislike.

You feel lonely, but the people around you hold the same self as you do. Seeing that connection, even briefly, can soften the feeling of being separate.

When you see someone, silently acknowledge their shared humanity.
