Quotations in Bhagwad Gita

1. Hell has three gates: lust, anger, and greed.

2. When I read the Bhagavad-Gita and reflect about how God created this universe 
everything else seems so superfluous. - Albert Einstein

3. Whatever you do, make it an offering to me -- the food you eat, the sacrifices you make, the help you 
give, even your sufferings.

4. It is better to live your own destiny imperfectly than to live an imitation of somebody else's life 
with perfection.

5. A gift is pure when it is given from the heart to the right person at the right time and at the right 
place, and when we expect nothing in return.

6. No one who does good work will ever come to a bad end, either here or in the world to 
come.
7. I have become Death, the destroyer of worlds.

8. As a man can drink water from any side of a full tank, so the skilled theologian can 
wrest from any scripture that which will serve His purpose.

9. Balance of mind is called Yoga.

10. It is true that the mind is restless and difficult to control. But it can be conquered, 
through regular practice and detachment. Those who lack self-control will find it difficult to progress in meditation; but those who are self-controlled, striving earnestly through the right means, will attain the goal.

11. Knowledge, the object of knowledge and the knower are the three factors, which

the inevitable Thou shouldst not grieve.

13. Neither in this world nor elsewhere is there any happiness in store for him who always doubts.

14. The mind is restless and difficult to restrain, but it is subdued by practice.

15. There has never been a time when you and I have not existed, nor will there be a time  when we 
will cease to exist. As the same person inhabits the body through childhood, youth, and old age, so too at the time of death he attains another body. The wise are not deluded by these changes.

16. Those who eat too much or eat too little, who sleep too much or sleep too little, will not succeed in meditation. But those who are temperate in eating and sleeping, work and recreation, will come to the end of sorrow through meditation.

17. Still your mind in me, still yourself in me, and without a doubt you shall be united 
with me, Lord of Love, dwelling in your heart.

18. Be free from fear. Be fearless and have faith in the divine.

19. Not by refraining from action does man attain freedom from action. Not by mere 
renunciation does he attain supreme perfection.

20. As person abandons worn-out clothes and acquires new ones, so when the body is 
worn out a new one is acquired by the Self, who lives within.

21. Out of compassion I destroy the darkness of their ignorance. From within them I 
light the lamp of wisdom and dispel all darkness from their lives.

22. No work stains a man who is pure, who is in harmony, who is master of his life, 
whose soul is one with the soul of all.

23. The happiness which comes from long practice, which leads to the end of suffering, which at 
first is like poison, but at last like nectar - this kind of happiness arises from the serenity of one's own mind.

24. The knowledge sacrifice is superior to any material sacrifice.

25. No one is even equal to You in the three worlds how can there be one greater than You O Being 
of Incomparable Glory.

26. But, you are not able to see Me with your physical eye therefore, I give you the divine 
eye to see My majestic power and glory.
