कर्मण्येवाधिकारस्ते मा फलेषु कदाचन ।
You have a right to action alone, never to its fruits. Let not the fruits of action be your motive, nor let your attachment be to inaction.
Chapter 4.7यदा यदा हि धर्मस्य ग्लानिर्भवति भारत ।
Whenever there is a decline of righteousness and a rise of unrighteousness, O Bharata, then I manifest myself.
Chapter 18.66सर्वधर्मान्परित्यज्य मामेकं शरणं व्रज ।
Abandoning all duties, take refuge in me alone. I shall liberate you from all sins; do not grieve.
Chapter 9.22अनन्याश्चिन्तयन्तो मां ये जनाः पर्युपासते ।
To those who worship me alone, thinking of no other, ever steadfast, I bring what they lack and preserve what they have (yoga-kshema).
Chapter 2.20न जायते म्रियते वा कदाचि-
The soul is never born and never dies; nor, having once been, does it ever cease to be. It is unborn, eternal, ever-existing and primeval. It is not slain when the body is slain.
Chapter 6.5उद्धरेदात्मनात्मानं नात्मानमवसादयेत् ।
Let a person lift himself by his own self; let him not degrade himself. For the self alone is the friend of the self, and the self alone is its enemy.

The Bhagavad Gita (“Song of God”) is a 700-verse Hindu scripture set within the epic Mahabharata. It records a dialogue between Prince Arjuna and Lord Krishna on the eve of the Kurukshetra war, covering duty (dharma), the eternal soul, and the paths of yoga.
The Bhagavad Gita has 700 shlokas (verses) organised into 18 chapters.
It was spoken by Lord Krishna to Arjuna on the battlefield, and is traditionally attributed to the sage Veda Vyasa, who composed the Mahabharata.
Do your duty sincerely without attachment to the results (karma yoga), keep the mind steady through equanimity, and seek the eternal self — offering every action to the Divine.
Yes. AskGita gives all 700 shlokas with the original Sanskrit, transliteration, word-by-word meaning, and full translations in both English and Hindi.
