Anxiety

Seeing You touching the sky, blazing in many colours, with gaping mouths and vast flaming eyes — my inner self trembles, O Viṣṇu; I find no courage and no calm.

Does such a one not perish, fallen from both paths, like a cloud torn apart — rootless, O mighty-armed Krishna, bewildered on the road to the Absolute?

The five obstacles to meditation - desire, ill will, lethargy, restlessness, and doubt - should be removed.

Don't worry about your future birth. Make the most of your current life, and free yourself from the cycle of birth and death. Cultivate devotion to the Lord, let go of base desires, and focus on doing good for others.

The qualities associated with the attribute of Rajas include pride in personal beauty, a sense of lordship, war, reluctance to give, lack of compassion, and experiencing both happiness and misery. These individuals take pleasure in speaking ill of others and engaging in various disputes and quarrels. They exhibit arrogance, discourtesy, anxiety, and hostility, leading to sorrow. They also appropriate what belongs to others, and display shamelessness, crookedness, disunity, coarseness, lust, anger, pride, a sense of superiority, malice, and slander.

A person who is wise and knowledgeable considers insults as nectar. Even when insulted, they sleep without any anxiety.

For one who has wisdom, self-control, contentment, and no desires or hopes, and sees everything with self-awareness, there is no trouble or anxiety.

A person with a restless mind, who quarrels without reason, and has no qualms about abandoning good friends, should be avoided. This includes those who are self-centered, quarrel with friends over minor issues, and speak kindly but act hostilely. They have distorted perceptions, are blind to their own well-being, and never find joy in what is good for themselves or others.
