"Sri Krishna further advised Arjuna thus, "When you develop an interest in the fruit of Karma, you must be prepared for some disappointments also. If your Karma becomes fruitful, you will feel happy and elated. If it results in failure, you will get disappointed and depressed. Therefore, give up the nature of getting elated on account of joy or getting depressed on account of sorrows. You should be a sthita pragnya (One who is steadily fixed in constant integrated awareness). Therefore, you have to develop a sense of equanimity between joys and sorrows."
