Bhagavad Geeta 2.19

Sanskrit

य एनं वेत्ति हन्तारं यश्चैनं मन्यते हतम्। उभौ तौ न विजानीतो नायं हन्ति न हन्यते।।2.19।।

ya enaṁ vetti hantāraṁ yaśh chainaṁ manyate hatam ubhau tau na vijānīto nāyaṁ hanti na hanyate

Meaning

Your actions don't define your worth; neither do others' judgments. Focus on doing your duty well, detached from outcomes and criticism.

Translation

He who thinks of this One as the killer, and he who thinks of this One as the one being killed, both of them do not know. This One neither kills nor is It killed.
