Verse by Vyasa
It is better to live your own destiny imperfectly than to live an imitation of somebody else's life with perfection.
Orginal text : श्रेयान्स्वधर्मो विगुणः परधर्मात्स्वनुष्ठितात् ।
Additional information : This verse emphasizes the importance of following one's own path and duties (dharma) in life, even if done imperfectly, rather than trying to imitate someone else's path. This teaching is central to the Bhagavad Gita's message of self-realization and fulfilling one's purpose in life.
