Bhagavad Gita 6.9
सुहृन्मित्रार्युदासीनमध्यस्थद्वेष्यबन्धुषु। साधुष्वपि च पापेषु समबुद्धिर्विशिष्यते॥
suhṛin-mitrāryudāsīna-madhyastha-dveṣhya-bandhuṣhu sādhuṣhvapi cha pāpeṣhu sama-buddhir viśhiṣhyate
Translation
He who regards impartially lovers, friends, and foes, strangers, neutrals, foreigners and relatives, also the righteous and unrighteous, he excelleth.
What it means
One excels who regards with equal mind the well-wisher, friend, enemy, the indifferent, the neutral, the hateful, relatives, the virtuous and the sinful. The hardest equality is among people. The list deliberately includes everyone you would rather rank.
Try this today
The hardest impartiality list: not strangers but the people closest and the people opposed.
Something to reflect on
Which person on my hardest list - rival, ex, critic - can I hold in an even mind for one minute?
