Bhagwat Gita: Chapter 5 - Letting Go Without Walking Away (Online Discussion)

A reflective discussion on inner freedom, detachment, and finding peace without withdrawing from everyday life.

###

When life feels demanding, many of us wonder whether peace lies in stepping away from work, roles, or responsibilities.
Bhagavad Gita Chapter 5 challenges this idea, exploring whether true freedom comes from withdrawal or from learning how to stay engaged without becoming internally burdened.
