Krishna tells Arjuna: "Rise above the three forces that pull people around — the pull of comfort, the drive of ambition, and the weight of laziness. Stop worrying about getting and keeping things. Just be steady in who you really are."

Settle
Rise above the three forces, beyond the pull of opposites. Rest in pure, steady being. Lean back into it now.
The essence
Rise above the opposites; rest in being.
Breathe
You rise above the pull You settle into steady being
Contemplate
When pulled by comfort, ambition, or sloth, where is the deeper place to choose from?
Take with you
Write of one pull you want to choose freely beneath.
