What are few comments that Lord Krishna made about equality or Yoga in Bhagwat Geeta?

Lord Krishna says that the 'equality' is called as Yoga. (From 2/48). Lord further elaborates that the the deeds or work, which is done with the attachment towards the results, is of much lower category than the deeds or work that are taken as the loss and gain are both 'equal'.

(Loss or gain are two sides of the coin. You may fall on either side.) So you search your happiness (or protection? Or safety?) in this equality.

Those who expect the desired results may end up in being in pitiable condition. (2/49). Lord Krishna says that the person, who has equality towards loss and gain, give up fruits of good deeds and bad deeds on the earth only.

Such person gets freedom from the results of good or bad deeds. This is the way by which you get liberation from the results of your good or bad deeds.(2/50).(By doing the good deeds you will go to the heaven. You will enjoy there.

Once the results of your good deeds are consumed, you will get the rebirth. Same thing about the bad deeds. You go to the hell for doing the bad things.

Then come back to the earth again after you suffer the punishment. When you have the attitude of 'equality' towards loss and gain, you do not get attached to the results of your deeds or work. As a result you are liberated from the birth, death, rebirth and dead again cycle.

Lord Krishna further says that the intelligent people, who fallow the 'equality' do not get the results of good deeds or bad deeds. They become free of taking birth again and again. They go to the 'ultimate' place (of God).

(2/51). Lord Krishna further says that when your mind will cross the muddy puddle of delusions (desires?) you will have dispassion or detachment from all types of consumable things. The consumable things that you have already heard about and you are going to hear about in the future.

(2/52)Lord Krishna further says that when you mind and intellect will be stable and immovable in the God, which has been diverted by the listening of the different kinds of talks, then you get stable in the Yoga. (2/53).

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
