Because Stalking Your Friends’ Lives on Instagram Shouldn’t Make You Feel Like a Loser. Let’s get one thing straight: comparison is the ultimate uninvited guest. It shows up at your self-esteem dinner party wearing your insecurities like a designer outfit and never leaves. And yet, here we are, scrolling, double-tapping, and silently asking ourselves why our life isn’t a rom-com montage.

Okay, let’s talk about that thing you swear is your “good heart” but is secretly just emotional masochism with lipstick: the chronic need to help everyone. Yes, you, jumping in to fix, save, support, advise, uplift, sponsor, babysit, and occasionally resuscitate the entire planet like you’re auditioning for the role of “Discount Krishna, Now With 30% More Martyrdom.”

So, your heart’s been stomped on. Maybe not stomped, maybe more like politely ghosted, but it feels like stomped. You’re scrolling through their Instagram, spiraling, wondering if life has secretly turned into a bad indie film. Here’s the thing though, Arjuna was also having a meltdown on the battlefield. And instead of Ben & Jerry’s, he got the Bhagavad Gita. Turns out, the same ancient wisdom that got a warrior through existential dread can get you through a breakup without rage-texting at 2 a.m. Let’s talk heartbreak, Gita-style.

In the sacred world of Krishna’s leela, Radha and Rukmini are often seen as two separate manifestations of love, one spiritual, one worldly. Yet, when we imagine their secret meeting, we uncover a moment where devotion and duty converse, where the soul’s yearning meets righteous action. It is a mirror for our own lives, teaching us how to balance inner longing with responsibility, how to embrace love without jealousy, and how different paths of devotion ultimately converge in the eternal truth.

Everyone acts like it’s this glittery crown waiting at the end of a conveyor belt of suffering. You know: get the degree, land the job, marry someone who owns at least one air fryer, and voila, you’ve “made it.” But then the conveyor belt keeps moving, and suddenly you’re forty, explaining your Netflix password to your kids while scrolling LinkedIn to see someone from your high school just got named “Vice President of Growth Synergies” (whatever that means).

So, you know how everyone on Instagram is basically a motivational speaker now? Like, if one more pastel-colored story tells me to “Manifest abundance, babe” I might manifest a migraine. Don’t get me wrong, positivity is cute, like a puppy in a bow tie. But when the Bhagavad Gita, yes, that ancient, hardcore guide to surviving the battlefield of life, suggests caution about drowning in sunshine thoughts, you kinda sit up. Because apparently, too much positive thinking is not just annoying, it’s dangerous.

In today’s world, money often feels like the ultimate measure of success. Yet, the Bhagavad Gita offers a perspective that challenges this notion: wealth is not the destination, but a tool, a reflection of how we live, act, and contribute. It teaches that how we earn, use, and perceive wealth shapes our peace of mind, relationships, and spiritual journey.

Navratri isn’t just about rituals, fasting, or festive celebrations; it’s a journey inward. The Divine Mother teaches us that the ultimate power she grants isn’t in material success but in resilience, courage, and self-belief. This article explores how connecting with Maa Durga’s energy during these nine sacred days can awaken your inner strength, helping you face life’s challenges with grace and confidence.

You know that moment when you’re staring at your laptop at 2 a.m., coffee in one hand, phone in the other, wondering why you’re crying over a spreadsheet and simultaneously scrolling Instagram for some validation? Yeah, that’s burnout. And guess what, your grandma’s yoga tapes aren’t going to save you.

Fear of failure is one of the most common struggles we face, yet it is often misunderstood. We see it as a signal to stop or retreat, but the Bhagavad Gita teaches us that fear is a teacher, a mirror to our attachment, ego, and identification with outcomes. Gita shows us how to act with courage, clarity, and faith, how to rise above the fear of failing while remaining grounded in purpose.
