Bhagavad Gita, Chapter 2, Verse 17

"Avyaktādīni bhūtāni vyaktamadhyāni bhārata
Avyaktanidhanānyeva tatra kā paridevanā"

Translation in English:

"That which pervades the entire body, know it to be indestructible. No one can cause the destruction of the imperishable soul."

Meaning in Hindi:

"जो सम्पूर्ण शरीर में व्याप्त है, उसे अविनाशी जानो। कोई भी अविनाशी आत्मा के नाश का कारण नहीं बना सकता।"

In this verse, Lord Krishna enlightens Arjuna about the nature of the soul, which is eternal and imperishable. He asserts that the soul pervades the entire body and is not subject to destruction. The physical body may disappear, but the soul remains intact. 

 



 
Lord Krishna addresses Arjuna as "Bharata", naming his lineage as a descendant of King Bharata. He emphasizes the importance of understanding the eternal nature of the soul and its difference from the perishable body. 


 This verse reminds Arjuna and all humans that the true essence of our existence is immortality in the  soul. 

 

It teaches us to detach  from the temporary nature of the physical world and focus on our eternal spiritual nature. Acknowledging the indestructibility of the soul helps us face life's challenges  with courage and calmness.

The Islamic Concept of "Tawakkul" (Belief in God)

Amongst the interwoven threads of Islamic mysticism, ‘Tawakkul’ has been given an important place. This Arabic word may be translated as ‘trust in God’ or ‘reliance on God’. It constitutes one of the most basic features in the relationship between a believer and Allah (SWT). Tawakkul finds its roots deep within the Quranic teachings, prophetic sayings, and Islamic ethical tradition. The goal of this discourse is to shed light upon various aspects of tawakkul, its theological significance within Islam, practical demonstrations as well as impact on Muslims’ lives.

Speaking tawakkul means putting all your trust in Allah. The term itself comes from the Arabic language where “wakala” means entrustment or dependence upon another person. In other words, it implies that we should leave everything up to Him firmly believing that He alone can provide for us; keep us safe from harm’s way; and show us what path we are supposed to take next among many other things related to guidance or sustenance. This confidence rests upon our unshakeable faith in His knowledge, mercy, and power because there is no other deity but Him.
