| Bhagavad Gita |
Bhagavad Gita Summary : Krishna explained to Arjuna, at the
time of death/quitting the body, a person remembers the supreme personality of
god as goal, then he achieves him, similarly he who meditates on Krishna and
constantly engage himself in remembering the supreme personality of god-
reaches him, like that the one who reads Vedas and follows all the rules and
guidance set by them also reaches him (if that’s their goal), the same is for
the one – who is dedicated his life in devotional service and completely
followed that as a medium to reach. Beyond all these, the one who understand
supreme personality, as oldest, as controller, as smallest, as largest, beyond
material, beyond conception, seeing him as sun, moon and everything and live as
yogin also reaches him.
Krishna has explained the
practice of Yoga, on how to close eyes and think of the central point of in
between eyes and thinking about god with the syllable of “Om” chanting, can
help in achieving perfection. Similarly he explained the calculation of days
and nights for Brahma and for human, and he told - by period and day /night,
when one can reach the birth less state. However the one who firmly believes in
supreme god and at the time of death, who only thinks on him, will reach Krishna
– the supreme personality of God.
“Our Life: The very famous
question, if tonight the world is going to be destroyed by a comet (think, NASA
missed this J)
and there is no chance for USA, Russia or China to send their missiles to
destroy it in the middle air, and it’s official now, that you have only 2 hours
with you….. What will you do...? Many of us would like to have our final wish
fulfilled, some in bars, some with family, some in roads, some in crying, some
in phone, some in love, some with holy book & in church/temple/mosque, etc praying that it should not end today
(basically asking god to do some magic to save them, so another few years they
can lead their great life J)…
Not most of them are expected to be in a state of prayer which leads only to
him and not thinking on anything else, instead many will be still searching for
final set of happiness or pleasure or handling fear through pleasure or engage
in action which makes them forget themselves. Interestingly not many of
us are sure, whether instead of fulfilling materialistic or human desires, we
will be realizing god!
The one who is studying the
holy books or praying in holy place, they are still searching god outside in a paper
(words) or in a place. There is nothing wrong in it. However the moment you
search god outside, the path is huge and it has no end. Many of them want to
see god in a form or in an action, or in nature, or in a place… We think god
has to come in front of us… Why should he come? …. God is inside you, if he is
the super soul and has made all these souls, and all these souls are part of
him, then your soul is the place where god resides... Don’t search him outside...
You may never find him! Let the moment be anything, he is there in you and he
never leaves you… You be having tea, eating meat , helping someone, wounded, or
working, let you do whatsoever, at every moment and at any time, he is there
with you! We think only in a particular place he lives or he resides, that’s
nothing other than lack of awareness. He never leaves you alone, let it be
success, failure, loss or anything, he is there with you and all your pain and
pleasure he is taking. Be sure, you are part of him and there is nothing to
worry, but you are not the god!!! Anyway, it’s true not everyone can have
the same understanding, so he has given many paths and religion and practices,
so that based on understanding they can follow him ( by doing devotional
activity, meditate, pray, help others, etc)”
