SLOKA OF THE DAY:

Bhagavad Gita As It Is -
Chapter 3 Text 43

evam buddheh param buddhva
samstabhyatmanam atmana
jahi satrum maha-baho
kama-rupam durasadam

evam--thus; buddheh--to intelligence; param--superior; buddhva--knowing; samstabhya--by steadying; atmanam--the mind; atmana--by deliberate intelligence; jahi--conquer; satrum--the enemy; maha-baho--O mighty-armed one; kama-rupam--in the form of lust; durasadam--formidable.

TRANSLATION

Thus knowing oneself to be transcendental to the material senses, mind and intelligence, O mighty-armed Arjuna, one should steady the mind by deliberate spiritual intelligence [Krsna consciousness] and thus--by spiritual strength--conquer this insatiable enemy known as lust.
