' Šrīmad Bhagavadgītā ' - BOOK REVIEW
The Bhagavadgītā is a bag of divine words emanating from the lips of God. A rosary of it in itself imparts divine preachings. As a scripture, it embodies the supreme spiritual mystery and clandestine virtues of the world.
The book exhibits a new facet to the mindset of the people. If quoted 'The Gītā is an epitome of all the scriptures', there is no harm in it. Indeed, it is the essence of Vedás, Scriptures and holy texts embodied to compose the very
body. The journey of life is considered myriad only when we imply the theoretical into practical. I quote,
"Just you wait, a myriad of opportunities, lie ahead yet waiting to be unearthed. Trust your journey!" Lies in us, 'The Soul', which is unborn, eternal, everlasting and primeval; even though the body is slain, the soul is not. The soul, is life, but an embodied soul is what weapons cannot cut nor fire can burn; water cannot wet nor wind can dry. The soul which defeats the 'forces of nature' is the fruit of holy meditation and a sageous scrutiny of 'The Gita'. The deed of manifestation of soul can lead to the lamentation of the self. Die, and you will win heaven; conquer, and you can enjoy sovereignty of the earth; therefore stand up, determined to fight. To quote is to promote, therefore I quote; "Words can paint constellation's breathing stars into dwindling lives".
The Bhagavad Gita is a conversation between Arjuna and Lord Krishna. When Arjuna found himself in a dilemma whether to go ahead in the war and fight like a warrior against his own kin or to follow his heart. Lord Krishna, the charioteer and the guide of the Pandavas enlightened him and the posterity.
Your body is temporary, but the soul is permanent. This explains why we need not attach 'moh' with our bodily desires. Whatever you do, all your acts should be attributed to Lord Krishna.
Death is inevitable. Whoever is born shall die one day. Nothing is immortal.
Peace of mind is important. Anger is personified to be delusional, and can cause trouble in mind. One should try to be as calm as possible to maintain an equilibrium. Avoiding extremity and indulging in Meditation is the key to attain mental balance.
Selfishness can kill your wisdom. Krishna says a selfish person can use his true wisdom. He/she will only look at their own benefits and not what serves the best interests of others.
The lord is omnipresent and is watching everyone and resides inside our heart.
Never ever shy away from your duties. A man is known by his deeds, so perform them righteously. Don't gush away from your responsibilities.
