Bhagavad Gita 13.28
समं पश्यन्हि सर्वत्र समवस्थितमीश्वरम्।न हिनस्त्यात्मनाऽऽत्मानं ततो याति परां गतिम्॥
samaṁ paśhyan hi sarvatra samavasthitam īśhvaram na hinasty ātmanātmānaṁ tato yāti parāṁ gatim
Translation
Seeing indeed everywhere the same Lord equally dwelling, he doth not destroy the Self, and thus treads the highest Path.
What it means
Seeing the same Lord equally present everywhere, one does not degrade the Self, and so reaches the highest goal. Self-harm is redefined: to treat any being as less than sacred is to injure one's own deepest identity.
Try this today
Equal vision as self-protection: harming another is harming the one Self.
Something to reflect on
If harming another is harming the one Self, what does my gossip cost me?
