The mind is everything. If the mind is stable, love becomes pure. ✨

It's a shame 📖

It's a shame that in the major Italian bookstores I can't find any books on Indian philosophy... Neither the Gita nor the Ramayana! Why do we have such a narrow horizon of knowledge? At most you'll find some do-it-yourself yoga book written by an aspirant...

Gita 2.7

“My natural strength and clarity have been lost due to weakness and misery. I am utterly confused about my duty and what is truly right. I surrender to You—please guide me clearly on what is ultimately good for me. From this moment, I accept You as my spiritual master.”

The truth

The Bhagavad Gita teaches that the Self cannot be cut, burned, wetted, or dried (2.23–24), it is beyond material modification. The Upanishads similarly describe the Self as pure, unborn, and unaffected by worldly impurities. 🪷

"For him who has conquered the mind, the mind is the best of friends; but for one who has failed to do so, his mind will remain the greatest enemy." - Bhagavad Gita
