Then the victory is yours. It cannot be taken from you, not by angels or by demons, heaven or hell." Buddha's victory is ours, it rests forever in the seat of the mind, unfolding in numerous lives. </p><p>In Ch.2 Verse 38 of the <i><a href="/wiki/Bhagavad_Gita" title="Bhagavad Gita">Bhagavad Gita</a></i> equanimity is ordained by <a href="/wiki/Krishna" title="Krishna">Krishna</a>, speaking to Arjuna; "Know That, by which all this (universe) is pervaded, to be indestructible. No one can destroy the indestructible (<a href="/wiki/%C4%80tman_(Hinduism)" title="Ātman (Hinduism)">Atma</a>)." and later Krishna states after instructing Arjuna to act with newly found clarity "Treating alike victory and defeat, gain and loss, pleasure and pain, Get ready for the battle. Fighting thus you will not incur sin." Sin-virtue are matters of the mind, and aren't of the body.<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>In the <a href="/wiki/New_Testament" title="New Testament">New Testament</a>, the victory of <a href="/wiki/Jesus_Christ" class="mw-redirect" title="Jesus Christ">Jesus Christ</a> over death and the sharing of that victory with the <a href="/wiki/Disciple_(Christianity)" title="Disciple (Christianity)">Christian believer</a> are referred to in the writings of <a href="/wiki/Saint_Paul" class="mw-redirect" title="Saint Paul">Saint Paul</a> and <a href="/wiki/Johannine_literature" title="Johannine literature">Saint John</a> (e.g. <a href="/wiki/1_Corinthians_15" class="mw-redirect" title="1 Corinthians 15">1 Corinthians 15:57</a>, <a href="/wiki/1_John_5" class="mw-redirect" title="1 John 5">1 John 5:4</a>). </p> </section><div class="mw-heading mw-heading2 section-heading" onclick="mfTempOpenSection(3)"><span class="indicator mf-icon mf-icon-expand mf-icon--small"></span><h2 id="Philosophy">Philosophy</h2><span class="mw-editsection"> <a role="button" href="/w/index.php?title=Victory&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Philosophy" class="cdx-button cdx-button--size-large cdx-button--fake-button cdx-button--fake-button--enabled cdx-button--icon-only cdx-button--weight-quiet "> <span class="minerva-icon minerva-icon--edit"></span> <span>edit</span> </a> </span> </div><section class="mf-section-3 collapsible-block" id="mf-section-3"> <p>The scholarly figure of <a href="/wiki/Plato" title="Plato">Plato</a> and his specific commentary about life's glories that <i>"The first and best victory is to conquer self.
