उत्तिष्ठ Uttishtha

Arise with knowledge from the Gita & Upanishads

Choose the good, even if it's not easy.

श्रेयश्च प्रेयश्च मनुष्यमेतस्तौ सम्परीत्य विविनक्ति धीरः । श्रेयो हि धीरोऽभि प्रेयसो वृणीते प्रेयो मन्दो योगक्षेमाद्वृणीते ॥

Katha Upanishad 1.2.2

Both the good and the pleasant come to every person. The wise look at both carefully and choose the good over the pleasant; the foolish choose the pleasant for the sake of comfort.

Choose what is good for your long-term peace, even if it feels less comfortable now. The wise act with purpose, not just for immediate comfort.

Ask yourself, 'What will help me feel more grounded today?'
