Article Scriptures Spiritual Evolution According to the Bhagavadgita - 3.  Swami Krishnananda (Spoken on February 24th, 1973) Post-3. =============================================================================================== We are not happy in spite of our education, notwithstanding that we have risen above the animal level of perception and come to what we call the human level of understanding. It only means that human understanding is not complete understanding. The level of humanity in the process of evolution is not the acme that evolution can reach. Evolution is an unending process, as it were. We do not know where it will reach finally. According to Henri Bergson, a great vitalistic philosopher, evolution is a universal process of things, which has neither a beginning nor an end. How it began, no one knows; where it will end, no one can say. In th...

Article Scriptures Stabilising the Mind in God: The Twelfth Chapter of the - Bhagavadgita: 3. Swami Krishnananda (Spoken on June 26, 1983) Post-3. ===================================================================================================== Be seated in a single posture, whatever be your comfortable posture. Sit, if possible, at the same time. If not, if you are a busy person, sit at any other time also when it is convenient, but for a uniform duration. If it is half an hour, let it be half an hour every day. If it is more, whatever the time be, stick to that duration. And tell the mind that now you are going to unite yourself, commune yourself with what is finally meaningful in this world. All meaning and all value, whatever is of any worth and significance in this world, is summed...

Swami Krishnananda (Spoken on October 14, 1984) Post-3. ======================================================================================= We may say that the second instruction is easier than the earlier one, where we have to totally become another thing. The second instruction does not expect that much of sacrifice, and only advises us to do some practice; still, we will find that even the practice is not easy. One session of practice cannot continue for a long time because monotony is resented by the mind. The mind requires diversity, variety, a picturesque presentation of things. A uniform conundrum is never appreciated by the consciousness. We cannot go on enjoying one picture always. We cannot even do japa for a long time because of the same reason, the same difficulty, because ...

Article Scriptures The Language of the Bhagavadgita: 3.  Swami Krishnananda (Gita Jayanti Message spoken on December 26, 1982) ==================================================================================== The difficulty of Arjuna at the commencement of the war has been rightly considered as similar to, or rather identical with, the astonishing problem facing a spiritual seeker in his arduous struggle to move towards God and His realisation. Where to demarcate this point of the difference between the ordinary conversation that might have taken place between Sri Krishna and Arjuna, and where it overcame this limit, we cannot say. All this is beyond us. However, it is certain that it grew into terrible intensity as it reached the Ninth or the Tenth Chapter perhaps, and it burst all boundaries when it reached the Eleventh. When the Eleventh Chapter records the co...
