PREFACE TO THE GEETA BHASHYA

By Sri Adi Shankaracharyaji (around 8th century A.D.)

Taken from his Bhashya (Commentary)

==============================================================

TWO BROAD HIGHWAYS ARE accepted in the Vedas for man’s spiritual growth:

i) Nivritti Marga: 

This is the path of Brahma Jnana, also the subject matter of 

Vedanta, and the main teaching in the Geeta. This path is based on the principle of Vairagya

or dispassion and leads one to liberation from Samsara or the cycle of births and deaths. It 

leads the aspirant to attain complete union with the Supreme Brahman, who is none other 

than one’s true Self. It is the path of pure spirituality, there being no reference to any 

religious observances, worship or performance of any duties. It is not against these 

practices; it is simply not determined by them.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

ii) Pravritti Marga: 

This is the path more commonly trod by mankind, as it is more 

within the common experience of most people. Whilst the Nivritti Marg is a path of 

renunciation, the Pravritti Marg is a path of involvement, engagement and enjoyment of the 

physical manifestations of this world. The path includes but is not restricted to the 

multitude of religious rites and rituals prescribed in the Vedas, the Karma or actions to be 

done or avoided, the various forms of Upasana or worship to be done to achieve various 

goals, even the heavenly worlds. This path in itself does not lead one to the goal set in 

Nivritti Marga, but its experience eventually makes one realize the futility of its 

impermanent goals. Thus dispassion arises in an indirect way through it.

It is said that the Nivritti Marga was taught to the 4 sages (Sanaka, etc) who were

Sannyasis or renunciates; while the Pravritti Marga was taught to Grihasthas or 

householders such as Mareechi and Prajapati.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Cause and Solution of Arjuna’s Despondency:

The Bhashya declares the cause to be Moha, delusion, from which arises Shoka,

sorrow (and joy). These are fundamental causes of the endless wheel of Samsara.

The root form taken by Moha is the thought “I belong to these” or “they belong to 

me”. The arguments that Arjuna has given arise from this delusion and sorrow.

When the mind comes under the sway of Moha and Shoka, we see the kind of 

behaviour displayed by Arjuna. In the absence of a firm conviction of one’s duty, there arises

either i) the desire to do the duty of others, or ii) one’s own duty is imperfectly done, with 

incorrect motives.

Such behaviour, which ties one endlessly to the cycle of births and deaths, can be 

removed only through Brahma Jnana or knowledge of the Self. The knowledge, when 

properly understood with a pure and clear mind, naturally leads to detachment from the

world, which amounts to Renunciation. Renunciation becomes the cornerstone of the 

solution that severs us from delusion. It may start with strong distaste for pleasure and end 

with renunciation of all duties (Sannyasa), according to the intensity of one’s desire for God. 

With this in mind, Sri Krishna begins His teaching in the Geeta with Brahma Jnana, without 

which no one can be freed from Samsara.
