Simple Method in Bhagavad Gita for Uplifting oneself/success:

  Simple Method in Bhagavad Gita for Uplifting oneself/success:   In our journey of life, we come across those who support our elevation and also those who push us towards destruction. We will be pulled by the “pleasant” masquerading like “good”. There are those who claim that lot of events, achievements in one’s or others life is only because of them. In katopanishad, Yama explains this to Nachiketa, as under: “The good is one thing, the pleasant another; these two, having different objects, chain a man. It is well with him who clings to the good; he who chooses the pleasant, perishes.”     When one reflects on his life, he will realise this. That reminded me Lord Krishna’s words in Geeta “ uddharedaatmanaatmaanam”   let us look at a few verses from Bhagavad Gita explaining this phenomena.   Chapter 6, verse 5 uddharedaatmanaatmaanam naatmaanamavasaadayet | aatmaiva hyaatmano bandhuraatmaiva ripuraatmanaha ||   Uplift yourself by yourself, do not deprecate yours
