Srimad Bhagavat Gita commentary chapter 18 verse 10

 Chapter 18 verse 10               

“Those who neither avoid disagreeable work nor seek work because it is agreeable are persons of true renunciation. They are endowed with the quality of the mode of goodness and have no doubts (about the nature of work).” 

The sattvic person’s disposition to every action exhibits equanimity and equipoise. Bhagwan Sri Krishna is himself a great example of such a person-sthitha Prajna-even keeled person. No action is disagreeable to these persons and they take everything in their stride. They don’t display overt excitement about even pious activities nor get sad to perform tough or difficult tasks. Every task is just there to be performed with utmost care and sincerity. There is no judgment involved in these actions. Today is Adi Shankara jayanti and he was one of these saints who prodded the society of his time to detach oneself from the material and attach ourselves to the Divine and dedicate all our actions to the Supreme. He has inspired millions of people ever since on the path of Advaita Vedanta and Sanatana Dharma. My sincere and humble prayers to his lotus feet on this occasion to take Bhagwan Sri Krishna and Jagadguru Adi Shankaracharya’s message to the entire world time and again.
