This Bhagavad Gita verse is of great significance for those with Capricorn rising. Individuals born under the Uttara Ashadha nakshatra generally act with a stable mindset. Under the influence of Saturn, they must act with patience and control. To handle challenges related to career and finances, they need to understand the permanence of the soul and the impermanence of the body. Mutual understanding and responsible actions within the family are essential. Saturn provides them with a stable mindset, enabling them to overcome obstacles in career growth. They should adopt a smooth approach to financial management. This verse guides them to accept the unchanging states, realize the permanent truth, and celebrate life with joy.

This verse is spoken by Lord Krishna in response to Arjuna's lamentation. He explains that a wise person never laments for the dead or for the past. Instead, they understand the eternal truth. The body is temporary, but the soul is eternal. They learn that the soul does not die. Therefore, we should act with deep knowledge and not be sorrowful.

According to Vedanta, the soul is unchanging and eternal. The body is temporary, and birth and death are associated with it. The wise recognize the greatness of the soul and look beyond the changes of the body. They act with knowledge; otherwise, they will approach loss and negativity. The reality of life lies in the awareness of the soul. Thus, we must embrace the unchanging states.

In today's world, our lives may be filled with various challenges. Family well-being, career growth, and financial stress can weigh us down. However, the message of this verse helps us understand the permanent truth and cope with stress. Mutual understanding in the family, patience at work, and a smooth approach to financial management can be achieved this way. Longevity and health are secured by the peace of our minds. We should stabilize our thoughts in what is permanent and genuine, avoiding easy lamentation on social media. In this way, by realizing the truth of the soul, we can celebrate our lives with joy.
