Geeta
Jayanti is the birthday of Bhagavad Geeta, the sacred text of the Hindus. It is
celebrated on the Shukla Ekadashi, 11th day of the waxing moon of Margashirsha
month (November-December) in the Hindu calendar. “The Peace of God is with them
whose Mind and Soul are in Harmony, who are free from the Desire & Wrath,
who know their own Soul by Meditation.” Just as the Mahabharata battle was
about to start, Arjuna told his friend Lord Krishna of his sudden change of
heart, and turned to Him for advice. Bhagavad Geeta is the conversation that
ensued. Lord Krishna advised Arjuna to get
up and fight. Arjuna was
told to act like a surgeon. If a person has a serious tumor and if it is
not cut out, it will harm the person and his family. Arjuna’s
fight was
for Dharma. He was fighting against exploitation
and greed, which were represented by Duryodhana and his brothers.

control or claim over the results. The fruits of work should not be your
motive. You should never be inactive.)
