Episode Synopsis

In the twentieth episode of their Bhagavad Gita series, Amish Tripathi and Bhavna Roy delve into Chapter 2, Verse 57—a powerful teaching on how to remain unshaken by life's ups and downs.Amish and Bhavna explore how true wisdom lies in detachment—not in indifference, but in emotional resilience.Using inspiring modern-day examples like Rishabh Pant and Shikhar Dhawan, who continued to play and grow despite personal and professional setbacks, and the incredible story of Sudha Chandran, who danced again after losing a leg, this episode connects timeless wisdom to today's world.They also contrast the reactions of iconic figures from our itihas & puranas — Lord Ram versus Raavan, and Lord Krishna versus Shakuni — to adversity. What makes one rise while another falls into self-destruction?If you’ve ever asked, "Why me?" or struggled with personal loss, this episode offers clarity, inspiration, and spiritual insight from the Gita itself.#BhagavadGita #AmishTripathi #SpiritualWisdom #RishabhPant #ShikharDhawan #SudhaChandran #GitaForLife #EmotionalResilienceSOCIAL MEDIA HANDLES Instagram - https://instagram.com/authoramishFacebook - https://www.facebook.com/authoramishX/Twitter - https://x.com/authoramish- https://www.linkedin.com/in/amish-tripathi-60080719bWhatsapp - https://www.whatsapp.com/channel/0029VaiNhDh3WHTdPS2lAQ3RThreads - https://www.threads.net/@authoramish
