The Gita – Chapter 6 – Shloka 05
Shloka 5
Dear Arjuna, one should lift himself through his own efforts. He success or failure in performing his Karma should be the result of his own doing. Should a man fail, he should not degrade himself, O Arjuna, for he is his own true friend as well as his own true enemy.
अपने द्वारा अपना संसार समुद्र से उद्दार करे और अपने को अधोगति में न डाले ; क्योंकि यह मनुष्य आप ही तो अपना मित्र है और आप ही अपना शत्रु है ।। ५ ।।
