Handling Criticism & Praise: Krishna’s teaching guides responses; builds emotional independence
Criticism can evoke strong emotional reactions that cloud judgment and distract from the feedback itself. Krishna's teachings suggest that individuals should not assign equal weight to all criticism. Emotional independence allows one to learn from criticism without losing inner balance. Responding impulsively to negative feedback can lead to regret and should be avoided. Developing a stable mindset helps in processing external opinions effectively, ensuring personal growth.
