Humble Reflection · Regret for Past Casualness

ॐ

सखेति मत्वा प्रसभं यदुक्तं हे कृष्ण हे यादव हे सखेति । अजानता महिमानं तवेदं मया प्रमादात्प्रणयेन वापि ॥

sakheti matvā prasabhaṁ yad uktaṁ he kṛṣṇa he yādava he sakheti, ajānatā mahimānaṁ tavedaṁ mayā pramādāt praṇayena vāpi.

Meaning

"Whatever I have rashly said, thinking of You as a mere friend, calling out "O Krishna, O Yadava, O friend," not knowing this greatness of Yours, whether out of negligence or affection."

Explanation

Realizing someone's true depth can bring gentle regret for having treated them too casually before.

Today's Life Lesson

If you realize today you've taken someone's depth for granted, let that gently prompt more gratitude, not guilt.
