Bhagavad Gita • Chapter 1

The casting down of weapons marks the surrender of the ego's pretense of control—only from this place of complete helplessness can divine teaching enter.

Bhagavad Gita • Chapter 1

When adharma floods in, all become vulnerable—and Arjuna, trapped in his era's worldview, blames the victims rather than the violators.

Valmiki Ramayana, Aranya Kanda

Shabari tasted each berry to ensure only the sweetest for Rama. He ate them with joy, showing pure devotion transcends ritual purity and caste.
