Thus, on the basis of this Sankhya knowledge of the uniformly applicable structural pattern of nature, our actions have to be gauged. Arjuna became giddy. “Very difficult, sir! What are you saying? I cannot act. My mind is giddy. I cannot understand what you are saying.” Then Arjuna's thoughts are raised step by step from one stage to another stage through the various chapters of the Gita until the apotheosis or the apocalypse is reached in the Universal Viratsvarupa in the Eleventh Chapter. Unless we have the cosmic vision of the Absolute, we cannot understand the world. “Arjuna, you cannot even lift your finger unless you see the Universal Form.” And after the Universal Form was visualised, the proper location of the individual was known. The correct position of each person in respect of the Universe was understood. My status is known only when I know what the Universal is. So Arjuna could not take a single step until the Vision Supreme was bestowed upon him – Sankhya, knowledge, melting into an experience of the very basic creative will and power of the cosmos.
It is in this basic foundation of the cosmos that we have an answer to the question of the relation between matter and spirit of the individual and the world and society. All antitheses get reconciled in the Vision Supreme. The Bhagavadgita takes us through action to knowledge, though it goes from knowledge to action, thus blending knowledge and action in a beautiful synthesis so that knowledge and action cease to be two different approaches. We have not here the conflict between knowledge and action, as both mean one and the same thing. When action understands itself, it is called knowledge; when knowledge starts moving, it is called action. They are one and the same.
Such is the basic implication of the Bhagavadgita gospel, knowledge and action combined, providing a simple rule of judgment of values in our day-to-day life – God speaking to man and God blessing man perennially with an inspiration that can be explained only in terms of that vast unfoldment of Realisation we have in the Eleventh Chapter of the Bhagavadgita. This unfoldment of Realisation concretising itself into manifold activity is expounded in the remaining chapters from the Thirteenth onwards until it reaches the Eighteenth Chapter where all social problems are also touched upon and explained, concluding with a resounding message that God and man should work in unison. Yatra yogesvara? k???o yatra partho dhanur-dhara?, tatra srir vijayo bhutir dhruva nitir matir mama: Human effort and divine existence are to work in synthesis, in collaboration, in unison, so that when man thinks, God thinks, and when God thinks, man thinks. They are not two different thoughts. When one acts, the other also acts. Where such unity of action rises from a correct understanding of the structure of creation, success is bound to come. “You will certainly succeed in your life; there is absolutely no doubt,” says Sanjaya towards the end of the Bhagavadgita gospel.
The End.

========================================================================
SUM : TO TAMIL NADU PEOPLE, TO UNDERSTAND :
"THE CHHANDOGYA UPANISHAD IS ONE OF THE MOST PROMINENT AMONG MAJOR GROUP OF PHILOSOPHICAL AND MYSRICAL TEXTS CONSTITUTING OF THE THREEFOLD FOUNDATION OF BHARATHAM'S SPIRITUAL LORE, THE TRIPOD OF BHARATHA SAMASKARAM, BEING CONSTITUTED OF THE 1.UPANISHADS, 2. 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.
========================================================================
#WARNING
#Request to Tamil nadu people :
Breaking India Forces, are very active in Tamil nadu, wakeup, be cautious, Cristian missioneries and Islamic Jihadis the two communal forces are patranised by all demonic political parties, the Aiadmk government and media is silent on this. both these communal groups misuse our Democracy, and Freedom, under the cover of minority status, hour has come to eliminate this combined evil, before the state become self destroyed; do not allow this, SAVE TAMILNADU.
