Bhagavad Gita Chapter 2, Verse 23

नैनं छिन्दन्ति शस्त्राणि नैनं दहति पावकः | न चैनं क्लेदयन्त्यापो न शोषयति मारुतः ||

nainaṁ chindanti śastrāṇi nainaṁ dahati pāvakaḥ na cainaṁ kledayanty āpo na śoṣayati mārutaḥ

Weapons cannot pierce this; fire cannot burn it; water cannot wet it; wind cannot dry it.

Krishna uses four physical impossibilities to reveal consciousness's indestructibility. Weapons can't cut it, fire can't burn it, water can't wet it, wind can't dry it—because consciousness has no physical properties. This isn't poetry; it's precise philosophy: your awareness exists in a different category from matter. For Arjuna facing battle's violence, this is ultimate reassurance. For you: the traumas, betrayals, failures you've experienced happened TO consciousness but can't damage it. Like a movie can't damage the screen. You can be deeply hurt, but never fundamentally broken.
