Chapter 1: Introduction to the Bhagavadgita - 6
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The great work of Krishna Dvaipayana Vyasa, who wrote the Mahabharata, is not merely a story that you can witness as a television drama, as you have it these days. It is not a novel which you can read at your leisure for your own personal pleasure. It is a study of human nature. It is a history, no doubt, but not merely a political history like the history of England, Europe or India, as you read in your colleges. This is a history of human character, the development of the human psyche, and the ups and downs of human development throughout the process of the march of time – not merely confined to a particular point in time. So you may say this great epic of the Mahabharata is a history of the time process, not the history of India, not the history of the Bharatas. It is the history of humanity as conceivable in the very structure of the time process itself.
The term ‘humanity’ should be understood in the context of the creation of the world itself, and not in the light of the anthropological or the modern historical findings which commence human history sometime after 3000-4000 B.C. The history of the world did not start only at that time; it began when creation itself started. When Brahma created Manu, or God created Adam and Eve, you may say, history commenced. Therefore, for you, from the point of view of what you may have to learn from the Bhagavadgita, history may be regarded as a cosmic process. At one place in the Bhagavadgita, the great Master refers to Himself as the Time Spirit. Kalo’smi loka-k?aya (Gita 11.32): “I am here before you as the world-transforming Time Spirit.”
Transmutation is the process of creation and destruction, and everyone is involved in this time process, which is basically mutation. Time never stands still for even a second. It undergoes transformation. It is a conflict between the present and the future. It absorbs the past into the present and runs forward into the future. There is a continuous activity taking place with every person and every thing involved in time. There is a confrontation of the three phases of the time process – past, present and future – something going, something coming, or we may say more prosaically, something dying and something being born. It is something like a war taking place. The history of humanity, which is the history of creation itself, is a story of events dying and being born that constitute the whole of history.

OPINION :
1.THIS UNIVERSE RESPECTS OUR BHARATIYA HOLY SCRIPTURES THAN ANY THING;
2. NATIONS ALL OVER THE WORLD INTRODUCED LEARNING OF UPANISHADS, SRIMAD BHAGAVAD GITA AND SANSKRIT; THESE SCRIPTURES ARE TRANSLATED INTO ALMOST ALL WORLD LANGUAGES; OUR SCRIPTURES ARE ACCEPTED, AND ACCEPTED BY THE UNIVERSE;
3. WONDER ARE THESE TAMIL PEOPLE NOT AWARE OF THIS UNIVERSAL TRUTH?
4. ARE THESE TAMIL POLITICS SEPARATE FROM THIS HOLY NATION?
5. WHY TAMILNADU PEOPLE NOT PREPARED REJECT THIS RUBBISH ANTI NATIONAL POLITICS OF SEPARATISTS?
6. EVR ATROCITIES AGAINST TAMILNADU BRAHMINS AND HIS ACCUSAL THEORY OF ANTI RAMAYANAM BY WAY OF HIS DRAMA KEEMAYANAM; NO ONE PROTESTED THEN; WHY? ARE THE PEOPLE NOT AWARE OF THE HOLINESS OF GREAT EPIC RAMAYANAM. THEN?
7. THE FUNNIEST PART OF THIS STORY THAT WHEN AP NAGARAJAN PRODUCED SAMPURNA RAMAYANAM WITH THEN SUPER STARS TAMIL PEOPLE MADE A HEAVY RUSH TO THEATRES? WHY THIS ATTITUDE? CINEMA IS DIVINE NOT RAMAYANAM IS IT SO?
8. PARENTS AND CHILDREN ARE DECISION MAKERS AND FREEDOM CHOOSE THE SPIRITUAL SUBJECTS IN EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS;
9. IF THE CENTRAL GOVERNMENT HAS DECIDED THIS, IT IS A FACT THAT THE PEOPLE OF BHARATHAM REQUESTED PM MODIJI THROUGH MAN KI BAAT AND OTHER CHANNELS BY WAY PEOPLE CONTACTS WITH PM AND TEAM INDIA.
10. TAMIL POLITICS HAS NO ROLE HERE, WHERE THE PEOPLE IS IN THE CENTRE-POINT, DIRECT WITH PM MODI JI LEAD TEAM INDIA, SO KEEP AWAY IT IS BHARATHAM.
11. DMK LIKE TAMIL POLITICAL PARTIES, PLAY ANTI HINDUS, ANTI NATIONAL POLITICS AND SPREAD VENOM OF HATRED TO GET MINORITY VOTE BANK, A FUTILE IDEA, WILL BE BROKEN SOON, FOOLS;
12. THIS FUNNY TRICK AIADMK WHO IS THE PARTNER TO BJP IN TAMILNADU POLITICS, DID NOT RAISED VOICE AGAINST THOSE WHO OPPOSED THE SPIRITUAL LEARNING WITH SANSKRIT, BEWARE THESE TYPES OF WOLVES.

BRAHMASUTRAS AND 3. THE SRIMAD BHAGAVAD GITA."
========================================================================
FINAL WORDS : WHAT THE GREAT ACHARYA SAID :
#The interesting phenomenon of the delivery of the Bhagavadgita is that the most sacred thing that it is – a holy teaching connected with God and creation, something which you would like to hear in a sanctified spot such as a #temple or an #ashram, a #university or an #academy, a #school or a #college – is given in the worst of human conditions, #called battle.
