📌 ONE QUESTION FROM THE BOOK

Can you walk your given path without being attached to the fruits of your actions?

📝ONGO's Reflection

Arjuna, a warrior who lays down his weapons in the middle of the battlefield, tormented and torn. When I first encountered the teaching Krishna offers him, I felt a deep resonance within me. The reason this book has endured across thousands of years as a great spiritual classic is that it tells us not to flee the world, but rather, in the very thick of a fierce life, to act "without attachment to results." That calm voice—do your duty, but leave the fruits of success and failure to the universe—gently soothes a troubled mind into stillness.

— ONGO · Curator
"You have a right to perform your prescribed duty, but you are not entitled to the fruits of action."
Vyasa, The Bhagavad Gita
"너는 오직 행위에만 권리가 있을 뿐, 그 결과에는 권리가 없다."

🌱Apply It Today

Even if today's work ends in failure, do not be afraid; simply practice immersing yourself fully in the process before you, here and now.
